In later years, I craved foods that were almost always fattening.

I love fried chips, but they weren't good for you, and I didn't like the healthy options like rice chips.

I'm addicted to chocolate chip cookies. I mean that seriously. If there are chocolate chip cookies, I will devour them.

I was a food junkie.

I was always a junk food person, still am.

I love eating junk food. I'm a huge snacker, chips and candy.

It was a real hand-to-mouth existence in those early days - I'd have whatever dry cereal there was in the house for breakfast, 30 cents to spend on lunch and a hot dog for dinner. I did that for years. So there was definitely a hunger in me, of various kinds, to succeed.

I was a fat child and loved cake, perhaps because it was the only sweet thing in my life.

One of the reasons I got really fat when I left home was because I thought rich people ate white bread and Spam. I also thought they could get processed meals, because we never did, so that was exciting.
