(Cover) - EN Star Style - Gwyneth Paltrow says she didnt used to like being bony.

The 38-year-old actress is famed for her flawless beauty and beautifully lean physique. However, the star has admitted that she didnt always have confidence in her body.

I never thought that Id be considered to have a good body, she revealed in an interview with SELF magazine. I was bony up top and kind of dumpy on the bottom. But my trainer, Tracy Anderson, completely changed my legs, butt, arms and stomach. I feel better than ever, too.

The Hollywood beauty has revealed she does 45 minutes of cardio five days a week, and combines that with toning, realigning and lengthening exercises. Gwyneth says she tries to eat healthily but sometimes cant resist giving into her cravings.

I say I always eat right, but last night, I had fried clams, pasta with duck sausage and two glasses of red wine, she says. When I want to lose, I eat less pasta, bread and potatoes.

Gwyneth says she is proud of the results of working hard on her body. The Oscar-winning actress

says that despite having two children, her body feels in great shape.

I saw a shot of myself in Barbados and was, like, all my hard work paid off, she said Im 38, I have two kids, and I feel good. (C) Cover Media
