I was just starting drama school, and found I was moving around a lot. I also started to eat sensibly. The weight just dropped off. ↗

Sometimes I say to myself, what are you doing in this absurd job? Why don't you go to Africa and help people? But I cannot help people, because I am a hypochondriac. ↗
