Memorable Quotes:
“So much of what happens in our life is really about the relationships that we have and when you realize that that has been a choice that you have, you choose your relationship.” (6:43, JJ Virgin)
“Our reaction to anything is a choice or decision.” (10:02, JJ Virgin)
“People get diagnosed with different autoimmune diseases. This happens and you know what? It didn't happen on Tuesday. It happened years ago. And there's been warning signs all along the way, but you kept saying I'm not worth it.” (20:13, JJ Virgin)
“Supplements are like a weapon.” (23:46, Jackie)
“Exposure equals preference. Keep the enemy out of the house, keep exposing them (your children), get them involved in cooking, but eat healthily.” (29:21, JJ Virgin)
“I think that we should be using the scale as a tool, not as a way of shaming people. And I'm amazed at how much emotion is involved in the scale. We need to look at a scale like we do a blood pressure cuff or a glucose monitor.“ (38:31, JJ Virgin)
