Molly Shannon Uses Exercise as Stress Therapy

Categories: Celebs & Entertainment

Comedian Molly Shannon makes it hard to keep a straight face, but one thing she's always serious about is fitness. And it's not just because she's in the public eye. "I'd exercise and eat right even if I didn't work in front of a camera," says the star, 44. "Growing up, I always liked playing soccer and running around. Now I run for 20 to 30 minutes a day. It helps me sleep. It de-stresses me. I love it, love it, love it!"

As for eating well? She has one secret -- she never skips breakfast. "I usually eat something light, like a smoothie and fruit," she says, adding, "I take 2 tablespoons of flaxseed oil mixed with yogurt and a little granola."

Well, that advice is not something to laugh about. Sounds .. um, healthy (Or, uh, boring?). Your thoughts?
