"I have tried every diet out there and they don’t work, I started jogging and counting calories when I was just 14. I have been on every diet you can imagine. By the time I was in the Pussycat Dolls, I was on the scale all the time. It became my enemy because I noticed that when I exercised really hard, I’d gain weight. Now that I’m in my 30s, I have stepped off the scale and I just go by how my clothes fit."
