Sarah Jessica Parker eats everything
Ready for another "I eat everything and don't gain any weight" story? Here's one, by Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker."I eat everything," the actress, 43, says. "I'm just an eater. If it's free, I honestly eat everything."
To prove her point, Parker shared with PEOPLE magazine a list of the foods she'd eaten in the 48 hours prior to her diet confession.
"Last night I had steak and some lamb shank," she said. "And I had some roasted chicken and some cassoulet and some profiteroles and some ice cream and some cheesecake."
Another example: On Monday, "I had two different tarts from Once Upon a Tart [in SoHo] and toast and a banana and a cup of coffee and a bagel with cream cheese," she said. Oh, yeah: "And a glass of fresh orange juice."
While she doesn't gather up many calories from alcohol -- "I'm just simply not really a drinker," she says -- Parker definitely enjoys her food.
So how does she stay so slim and trim? Predisposition probably, says Parker. And Pilates -- although she hasn't worked out in weeks. And running around after her 5-year-old son. Oh, and anxiety too, she says.

Sorry guys, but I disagree on this one. Some people are just like that- they can eat whatever they want and stay skinny. Some people eat like crazy in an attempt to gain weight and can't do it. I think she's just naturally skinny, although she probably stays active too- I doubt she lays on the couch all day long. So when she's asked, is she supposed to lie and say she exists on diet coke and celery sticks to make the rest of us feel better? I wouldn't.
By the way, I'm NOT one of those lucky people. I stay thin with much effort and restriction, but I'm willing to admit that people like her exist.

I posted about this elsewhere, but I think she probably does eat like that, but her portions are probably under control. She's probably the kind of person who is naturally more active. There have been lots of studies recently that have shown that just the difference between being the kind of person who "fidgets" and is constantly in slight motion or the person who sits down and is very still and sedentary can make a difference of 300 calories a day. when you think of that, it's 2 cans of soda, or a small dessert, maybe that bagel with cream cheese.
SO my guess is she's honest, and doesn't have a restrictive diet, but by saying she eats everything or eat whatever she wants, she's not meaning she eats 3,000 calories a day, just that she doesn't deprive herself.

She probably does eat like that, just not every day all the time. I feel she's being misleading.

Wow, another celebrity claiming they don't do anything/eat anything and still stay slim. This is so tiring to hear about this. It paints an unrealistic image of how these stars do stay so thin and it makes people think that they can eat crap and be thin. And when that doesn't work (obviously) we have all these "Hollywood diet secrets" and "no-exercise-eat-anything-you-want diets."
It's time people got realistic about health and fitness.
