I've had several things come my way. I would absolutely love to do things like that.

Since the first audition in Chicago, I haven't gotten on the scale, but I do know that I've lost a considerable amount of weight since then -- about 30 pounds. I exercise, eat healthy and try not to let food dictate my life.

Looking back, I could see just my actions that day, I was being very encouraging to everybody and telling people I love them and I was just so glad that I met them. And I didn't realize I was saying goodbye. But looking back, I realize I was.
