Roger Ebert Quotes

I will say I was a lot bigger as Superman. A lot bigger. I'm not saying how much. It's modesty about the weight - I've always been worried about my weight - but I also don't want to invite that debate: 'Henry weighs this, so he's the perfect Superman.' Or, 'Henry doesn't weigh this, and therefore he's not believable in the role.'

I'm toned, but I'm not cut. I like a little jiggle!

I've never said I'm perfect, and I've never said I'm a skinny girl.

I would never become a size zero. I work out because I want to look good naked, simple as that.

Some people would like me to be round again.

Yes, some people say to me you're too skinny, but never a skinny person says that to me, only people who could lose a few pounds say that.

As a gymnast, you always wear spandex. Being a teenager wearing spandex? It was tough accepting how my body looked, especially if there was any weight gain.

I'd feel better about myself if I did stomach crunches, but I don't.

I go to the gym a lot, and I see these guys, these young actors or models there, really punishing themselves - I mean, just killing themselves. And then I'll see one of them on a billboard, with the artfully messy hair, looking as though it's just natural and easy to have a body like that.

I was a bit overweight as a teenager, which may be why I'm more comfortable playing with clothes than showing my body.

I know that I'm very comfortable with my body. I'm not in insane shape or anything. I run, but I'm not a gym guy or anything. I wish I had washboard abs, but I don't.

A lot of people work out to be skinny. That's so boring, and it seems like a depressing goal for a modern woman.

I always tell people I'm not one of these guys that was, like, born with, like, a halfway decent body.

These days, I feel like a chunky spy in a thinner world. Strangers tell fat jokes in front of me. Jokes not meant for me. But... completely for the woman I used to be 150 pounds ago. The woman I could be again one day. The woman I will always be inside. Because being thinner doesn't make you a different person. It just makes you thinner.

As much as I would have loved to look like Jennifer Aniston in 'Friends,' that didn't happen. And I really tried! I hit that gym! I got a flatiron. But it didn't happen.

My whole thing with the whole weight situation is - it is what it is. It's never been my identity.

I often get references to 'slight' or whatever, and my weight's been a thing for me my whole life. I have to really, really work. I train six times a week to just be normal and not be fat.

My family, doctors, and society at large were constantly telling me that I was too heavy, that I needed to exercise more, that I should be smaller.

I have worked too hard on my body. I hope people like it.

Big can be beautiful - just not to me. I find you disgusting; freshmen 15 is not a life sentence.

Whenever there's a red carpet event coming up my trainer in LA that I see, I always come to her like three days before and go, 'Can you make me really thin in three days?' She's always like, 'If you come to me consistently all throughout the year, then yes I can. When you come to me with three days and ask to lose 10 pounds it's just not going to happen.' I'm like, 'Do your best. Please. Make me skinny.'

Sure I'm cut but not for the sake of vanity.

If we're talking about being skinny or losing weight, I don't have that problem; it's genetics.

I'm definitely not a muscle builder or a guy that's interested in being a muscle builder. It feels good to get back down to a normal size. Not like a hipster size or a buff-guy size, but just a normal, 34-waist guy.

Never fall for someone with a body to diet for.
