"I put on an item of clothing, looked in the mirror and it was horrible. I cried because I couldn’t get what I wanted. So for me, I think my surgery was necessary. For my own good, for my self-esteem.

"Beauty, for me, is fundamental. It’s the door. It’s the entry to many things — for work, for everything. If you’re single and ugly, you won’t get a boyfriend. If you’re fat, overweight at a party, they’re only going to look at the skinny, pretty, perfect women. Not the chubby one. She’s gonna be all alone, and is going to go home alone.

"Beauty isn’t everything, but if you have money to do surgery and you can do it, it’s really a right of yours, to be well. … Today I can say I’m happy, I’m really well.

"I intend to do more surgery. Because women are never satisfied. Women always want perfection."
