Angelina says that the role of Lara Croft is very close to her own life and it was the most difficult challenge she ever faced. She dedicated herself to regular workouts and an extremely strict diet to maintain the muscular but very slim figure which the role required.
Angelina switched smoking and drinking coffee with vegetables, soya milk and meat. She used to skip breakfast, only smoking a cigarette and having a coffee instead of a nutritious breakfast. This unhealthy habit actually made her store fat instead of burning it (as her body was still in fasting mode)
How Does Angelina Jolie Workout?

What Did Angelina Jolie Eat?
Steamed beef or sea bass
Vegetables
Soya Milk
No sugar at all!
Angelina gained alot of physical strength and fitness by following this exercise regime. By looking at her body in the movie you can see that it really works and paid off. She had to do difficult stunts such as sword fighting, dog sledding, spear throwing and bungee jumping.
All of these were new to Angelina but her physical strength and fitness enabled her to undertake these tasks with ease! She refused to allow a body double to perform the dangerous stuns and insisted on doing them herself.
Angelina Jolie's tomb raider diet was extremely healthy. Since then she has shed many more pounds as a result of her mother's passing. She has not been able to eat due to depression and it's sad to see her wasting away.
I hope that Angelina Jolie recovers from the devastating news of her mothers death and can start to eat healthily again. She was very thin in her latest movie and although she looks lovely no matter what weight she is at, I really do believe that her health will suffer unless she gains weight.
I'm sure many of the other Angelina Jolie fans will agree and are praying that she gets better!
Angelina Jolie's weight has fluctuated alot since giving birth. She is known for gaining and losing weight for her roles (she lost weight for the movie Girl Interrupted) and became very frighteningly thin.
The sad thing is that she is almost as thin as that now. The tabloids are reporting that she weighs only 98lbs.
The sexy star doesn't have an eating disorder. If she did she would have no energy to play with her children and we all know that she is photographed spending time with them almost everyday.
