If I Even Imagined Someone Talking To My Husband Too Close, I Would Beat The Crap Out Of Them.

I Like To Do Designs On The Side Of My Face, Or Cut Out Foil Stickers From The Crafts Store And Put Them On My Forehead.

If I'm Cooking Dinner For My Hubby Or Designing A Line Or Selling On Qvc, I Try To Do It In An Authentic Way. To Speak To People Like I Want To Be Spoken To, To Be A Voice For People Who Don't Have One And To Give Them Things They Need And Love.

I'm Strong And Fearless And Not Afraid To Take Risks In Business.

I Went To Catholic School And They Basically Just Said Don't Have Sex, But Would Never Explain Anything.

I Live In A World Where There's Magazines And Blogs, And People Feel Like They Are Allowed To Criticize Me, And In The Meanest Way.

Leopard Print Has Been My Thing Forever! When I Was A Teenager My Entire Room Was Done In Leopard Print - It's Timeless, Chic, And Always In Style. When In Doubt... Leopard!

Everyone Expects Me To Be 9 Feet Tall And Weigh 200 Pounds [when They Meet Me].

We're All Our Own Worst Critics And So Hard On Ourselves, But For Me, My Biggest Insecurity Is My Arms. I Just Hate The Tops Of Them. I Work Out And They Still Never Look Good Enough For Me. So, Over The Years I've Learned To Dress To Make Myself Feel Better.

I Hate That Our Brains Are Wired That Way. You Don't Remember The People That Raved About Us Or Just Said Something Nice - I Don't Know Why That's Not In Us To Focus On *that*. But I Think It Takes A Conscious Effort To Train Our Minds To Change That.

People Make Me Feel Like I Have A Problem Because I Haven't Had A Kid Yet.

I'm Thrilled To Continue My Partnership With U By Kotex For Generation Know While Helping To Empower Girls. I've Always Been A Motivational Resource For My Younger Sisters And Hope I Can Positively Impact And Inspire Other Young Girls Too.

If I Want To Wear A Long Flowing Dress, Someone Will Say I'm Pregnant.

But For A Man, It's Different. Like, Separation Can Take Years - It Can Take Years To Make Divorce Final. What Am I Supposed To Do During Those Years? I Think That's, You Know It's Not The *craziest* Thing, But It's Where A Lot Of Rumors Come From. It's Frustrating.

I Don't Feel The Pressure By Outsiders. I'm Not Someone Who's Easily Influenced By The Public.

Easily Influenced

I Just Think That Knowing About Your Body At Any Age, Whether It's Educating Yourself On Fertility, Getting Mammograms, Going Through Puberty - Whatever It May Be, Is Really Important. I Just Really Encourage Women Empowerment And Being Comfortable Talking About These Issues.

I Used To Follow Trends And Try To Do Exactly What I Saw In The Magazines, But I'm Not A Victoria's Secret Model Who Can Wear Anything.

I'm Armenian, But I'm Very Fair And I Look White... I Would Always Get Such Hate About It.

I Can't Work Out And *not* Be Watching Or Listening To Music Or Something. I Also Journal A Lot. I Think Writing Is Super Therapeutic. And Then, Hanging With My Nieces And Nephews. Just Like Baking Or Doing Silly Stuff Like Jumping On A Trampoline, Doing Fun Things With Them, Pretending I'm Five With Them, That Makes My Day.

I've Had A Lot Of Really Influential People In My Life, Like My Grandmother Mj, Who Have Helped Me Along The Way. But There Are So Many Of Us Girls In My Family, And Even Though They're All So Open And Honest, Who I Seek Advice From Depends On What Aspect Of Life I'm Dealing With.

I Just Find It Crazy What People Will Critique You On, And You Have To Take It With A Grain Of Salt. I Could Be Curing Cancer, And I Would Be Shunned For It. I Mean, That's Just The Truth. People Are Crazy, But I Like To Say For Every Hater I Have 100 People That Love Me And They Think It's Motivational, So I Try To Focus On That. But It's Sometimes Hard, You Know?

I'm The Ugly Sister. I'm The Fat One. I'm The Transvestite. I Have Had Those Mean Things Said About Me At Least Twice A Day For The Last Five Years. It's Horrible, You Know? But I Can Brush That Stuff Off.

You Know, I'm Allowed To F--king Date, I Haven't Seen This Guy In Three Years. We're In The Middle Of A Divorce. For A Woman, She Has To Wait. For A Man, Who Cares? That's What It's Painted As.

Having Someone In Your Class Call You Fat, Ugly, Too Tall And So On, You Start To Think All Those Things About Yourself. And If You're Like Me, Those Words Are Played On Repeat Inside Your Head. When I Was At Home, I Felt Loved And Safe. My Sisters Were Always A Safe Haven For Me. I Knew They Would Always Play With Me And Make Me Feel Like I Was One Of Them. Now We Have So Many More Social Outlets, There Are So Many Ways To Be Stalked And Bullied. If Social Media Is Too Much For You To Handle Then Don't Have A Twitter Or Facebook Account, Just Be Yourself. Be Who You Want To Be.

A Lot Of Adults Don't Think It's Their Place To Interfere With Kids. I Interfere All The Time.

A Moment On The Lips Is A Lifetime On The Hips.

Fame Comes And Fame Goes, But You Have To Be Able To Laugh About Yourself And To Take It With A Grain Of Salt.

Wow My Sister Has Changed. She Used To Whip Her Boobs Out For No Reason. Now She Does It To Feed Her Child.

The Armenian Genocide Is Such A Controversial And Very Sensitive Issue Because The Turkish And Armenian People Disagree About The Facts Of What Actually Happened. I Know How Strongly Armenians Feel About The Genocide, And How It's Never Been Recognised. At The Same Time, I Do Not Hold Today's Generation Of People Accountable.

When I Was At Home, I Felt Loved And Safe. My Sisters Were Always A Safe Haven For Me. I Knew They Would Always Play With Me And Make Me Feel Like I Was One Of Them.

It Just Sucks When You’ve Given So Much And You Realize It Still Wasn't Good Enough For Someone.

I'm Not Really An Actress.

I Love All Of My Shoes! It Is A Must To Have Them Color Coordinated, And To Be Able To See Each And Every One Of Them. I Know Exactly Where Each One Lives And I Can Tell If One Has Even Been Moved! It Definitely Helps To Put One Shoe Facing Front, And The Other To The Back. It Saves Space, But It Is Also Nice To Be Able To See The Back-side Of The Shoe. I Am An Organization Freak!

You Can Have 100 People Tell You How Beautiful You Look, And One Person Will Say, "god, Did You Sleep Last Night?" Not Even "you're Ugly," But "did You Sleep?" And You're All Of A Sudden Like, "what?!" And The Whole Day That's What You'll Remember.

I Would Surrender My Being To See You Whole Once More.

Part Of Being Married Is Knowing When Your Husband Needs Your Support.

To Be Able To Design For The Plus-sized Consumer, For Me, That's Just Beyond. It's A Dream.

We Believe In Embracing A Woman's Curves And I Feel Like Now So Many People Are Breaking Down These Barriers Of Not Only Going To A Size 6 Or 8, Which Is Considered "normal."

When I Did The Cover Of 'cosmo International,' Turkey Picked It Up And I Got A Lot Of Backlash For It.

My Father Raised Us Like … We Were Not Allowed To See People In Any Sort Of Colors, But Also We Were Not Allowed To Call People Fat. If Ever We Were To Say, ‘oh That Fat Person, Or This Person,’ He Would Make Us Put A Bar Of Soap In Our Mouth And Count To 10. We Weren’t Allowed To Look At People Like That.

I'm Proud Of Myself. I Could Break And Go Get All This Plastic Surgery And Get My Nose Fixed And Get Lipo Or Do Whatever, But I Haven't Chosen To Do That Because I Know I'm A Great Person. I'm Pretty Damn Hot, If You Ask Me.

I Just Find It Funny What People Will Comment On, I Try To Not Pay That Much Attention To It, But The Crazy Part Is That If I'm Doing A Squat And I Have An Action Photo, They're Like, "oh Your Form Is Off!" And I'm Like, Are You Kidding? I'm Still At The Gym And You're Not!

Keep Away From People Who Try To Belittle Your Ambitions. Never Allow Anyone To Take Your Spirit Away From You.

I Never Said I Was A Weightlifter. I Never Said I Was Trained. I'm Not A Personal Trainer. I Just Enjoy Working Out. So Sometimes I Feel Like, Do I Have To Write A Disclaimer? Like, Disclaimer: "i'm Not A Trainer."

It's Important To Me, No Matter What Size I Am Or Weight I Am, To Feel Beautiful. Even At My Biggest I Was Rocking Body Con Dresses And You Couldn't Tell Me Twice. That's What I Think Good American Is. It's About Women Of Individuality And Diversity, But Also About Being Comfortable In Yourself. That's What We're Trying To Promote. It's Not About Fitting Into A Size Two And That's What Makes You Beautiful. I Just Want People To Be Healthy And Love Who They Are And Be In Control Of Your Life. But That Doesn't Mean You Have To Be A Size Six.

I Think That Denim Is A Sexy Piece. If I Would Invest In Anything In My Closet It Would Be Denim Because You Can Wear It Day To Night And Now It's Even Acceptable To Wear To A Business Meeting.

If You're Too Embarrassed And Want To Hide Behind Your Computer Screen, That's What This Is For. It's About Building Confidence And That's What U By Kotex Does. Girls Owning Their Bodies And Health.

You Know, It's Funny, No Matter What I Do - I Mean, You're Always Going To Have Negatives And Positives.

I Try To Focus More On The Positive, But It's Half The Time I'm Getting, "oh You're Only In The Gym To Take A Picture," And It's Like, "so What The F--k, I'm In Here Every Day, I Drove An Hour Just To Take A Picture?"

You Can't Expect Everyone To Love You. I'm Not Someone Who Just Wants To Throw Out Hate, Just Because.

I Say All The Time I Think There Should Be Some Courses In The Regular Schooling System That Isn't, Even Like About Credit, Things That Matter Later In Life. I Learned The Harder Way: 'look, I Got A $500 Credit Card In The Mail, Let's Go Shopping!'

I'm A Modern Girl, But You Should Put Your Husband First. I Like To Think Divorce Is Not An Option.

I Have Moments Of Weakness, But Mostly I Brush The Criticism Off... Who Cares If I'm Not A Size Zero? I Don't Want To Be. I Love My Body; I'm Healthy, I Work Out.

But I Also Enjoy Life... The More Scrutiny I Am Under, The More Confident I Become. I Am Who I Am. I Can't Do Anything About It, And I Love Who I Am.

I Wanted To Lose Weight When It Was My Time To Lose Weight, Not Because Someone's Calling Me Out For It. I've Been Called The Fat Kardashian Sister For The Past Ten Years. But I Could Have Gone And Gotten Gastric [bypass Surgery] Or Done Liposuction Or Whatever And I Did Not Feel The Need To Do That, And I Didn't Think - I Sincerely Didn't Think Anything Was "wrong With Me."

A Few Years Ago I Lost 30 Pounds, And People Still Wanted To Criticize. And Honestly, I'm Happy With Myself If I'm A Little Heavier. I Realized: 'why Am I Trying To Conform To Someone Else's Idea Of Beauty?' I Think I'm Beautiful Either Way.

I Just Let My Hair Go - If There's No Hairdresser Around I Really Can't Be Bothered!

Not To Be Vain, But I Have Nice Long Legs, So I Like To Accentuate Them. Find What Part Of Your Body You Love Most - It Can Be Your Arms, Your Chest, Your Legs - And Emphasize That.

I Know This Is Going To Sound Crazy, But I Really Love Working Out. I Know That Sounds Sick To Some People, But I Didn't Love It At First. It's Become A Healthy Addiction For Me. And Like, Now, If I'm Watching Tv On The Couch I'm Like, "ugh, I Could Be On A Cardio Machine Watching The Same Thing." That's Just Now How My Mind Thinks.

I'm Not Big On Looking Up Myself. I Don't Get Google Alerts, And I Don't Look On Blogs.

I Don't Believe In Revenge. When People Are Bullies It's Because Of A Deeper-rooted Issue - Either Their Family Life Is Tough Or They're Being Bullied By Someone Bigger Than They Are.

I Always Have Mini Bottles Of Unbreakable, The Fragrance I Did With My Husband. I'm Armenian, So I'm Oily And Always Have Blotting Papers.

I Think - And Even With The Live Chin Up Movement - It's About Women Doing Things For Themselves. Being Empowered. Doing Things That Make You Happy. I Believe In That Philosophy.

It's Easier To Date A Football Player For Sure. Football Players Have One Game A Week, And They Practice Every Day, But They're All At Home. In Basketball, They're On The Road All The Time.

I'm Proud Of My Body. My Body Weight Will Always Be Something I'll Struggle With For The Rest Of My Life, But I'm Finally In A Good Place And Learning To Love Me For Me, And Not Somebody Else's Standards.

Now We Have So Many More Social Outlets, So Many Ways To Be Stalked And Bullied. If Social Media Is Too Much For You To Handle, Then Don't Have A Twitter Or Facebook Account. Just Be Yourself. Be Who You Want To Be.

My Weight Fluctuates, Like Any Normal Girl, And I Have Times When I Feel Insecure.

I Love Doing Fashion.

I'm Not Shy About Wearing A Lot Of Makeup! But When I Don't Have To Be Done Up, I Just Use A Bit Of Concealer And Maybe Some Lip Balm.

I Have Two Younger Sisters And I'm Such An Advocate Of Owning Who You Are As A Person. Don't Be Ashamed Or Intimidated. Never Feel Like You Are Not Amazing.
