Sarah Jessica Parker: I stay slim eating profiteroles and ice cream

But a huge helping of anxiety helps

Sarah Jessica Parker doesn't starve herself to fit into her designer clothes.

'I eat everything,' she insists. 'I'm just an eater. If it's free, I honestly eat everything.'

In 48 hours, the Sex And The City star can scoff enough to feed a family of four.

'Last night I had steak and some lamb shank,' Sarah told People.com at a screening of her new film, Smart People on Monday. 'And I had some roasted chicken and some cassoulet and some profiteroles and some ice cream and some cheesecake.'

The following day, Sarah had already consumed '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 - and a glass of fresh orange juice.'

The mum-of-one isn't a big drinker. 'It just doesn't occur to me,' she explains. 'Tonight I'll have a glass of wine.'

So how does Sarah fit into those teeny weeny clothes? Just with some gentle Pilates?

'It's predisposition probably,' she explains. 'Running around New York City, having a five-year-old - and anxiety!'
