I wondered if that's what aging felt like. That desire and reality were dueling until the day you die, that nobody every got to a place of peace.

I would eat 300 calories a day - a lot of Jell-O and no-sugar everything, of course. I was doing Pilates, weight-training, circuit training over lunch I would run on a treadmill in my dressing room with a fan on my face so I wouldn't sweat my makeup off.
