I run in the morning lift weights in the afternoon basketball training at night and then lift weights again at night.

Upon awakening in the morning I wondered if the proceedings of the night before had been a dream. It was hard to believe that I was the world's heavyweight champion.

The thing I care about is my weight - I'm as fanatical about it as a member of Girls Aloud. I weigh myself every morning. I know exactly what I want to be - 82kg - and I try to stick to it.

I always like to start my morning with a good amount of fruit. I really like pineapple particularly because of the enzymes that it has. Sometimes I have oatmeal. But if I'm feeling like I really want to be watching my weight more then I definitely do a protein like an omelet scrambled eggs or some smoked salmon.

I exercise every morning. I do light weights - 5lb and 10lb arm exercises - and then lie and lift my arms and legs. It's all about keeping core strength. I do a lot of stretching too.

If you do cardio one day and the next day you can do weights do it that way. If you need to do it at night or in the morning do it that way. Whatever you need to get it done just get it done.

If American men are obsessed with money American women are obsessed with weight. The men talk of gain the women talk of loss and I do not know which talk is the more boring.

I remember my mom saying that after you have a baby you get really thin. So you gain all that weight and then you just lose it and keep losing it.

It's interesting when people make comments about celebrities' weight gain or lack of weight gain as if they're a medical professional that's treating that celebrity. Like 'This doctor does not treat Jessica Simpson but thinks her weight is unhealthy.' If you don't treat her then how do you know?

I'm learning a lot about the culture of weight loss. I didn't know there were bloggers out there who were proud to be fat.

Think about how much it costs to incarcerate someone. Do we want them just sitting in prison lifting weights becoming violent and thinking about the next crime? Or do we want them having a little purpose in life and learning a skill?

What we face may look insurmountable. But I learned something from all those years of training and competing. I learned something from all those sets and reps when I didn't think I could lift another ounce of weight. What I learned is that we are always stronger than we know.

Knowledge may give weight but accomplishments give lustre and many more people see than weigh.

It becomes a giant's task to compute the result when the effect of cross seas wind at all angles and ever varying force arched surfaces head resistance ratio of weight to area and the intelligence of the guiding power crop up.

A German immersed in any civilization different from his own loses a weight equivalent in volume to the amount of intelligence he displaces.

All the people who follow me on Twitter know my sense of humor. I sometimes forget the blogosphere will give it more weight than I intended.
