Jessica Alba is one of the slimmest actresses in Hollywood. Aside from her acting skills, she is also famous for having a toned body.

But Alba is on a healthy mission for the world right now. She even declared that she is just like the rest of the women in the world experiencing body hang-ups.

'Let's face it, I don't have the body of a 14-year-old anymore,' said Alba. 'I think the more we try not to have that unrealistic ideal, the happier we'll be.'

 She confessed to Women's Health UK that she has problematic areas on her body too.

"I have cellulite and stretch marks-and I have a muffin top!" she said. "I have a brutally short attention span. It means I'm useless at work out. I get so bored."

Alba, 32, claims that she doesn't like working out. However, what she lacks on fitness she certainly makes up for by eating healthy food.

"I started cooking for myself at 12 because a lot of food my family ate was processed. I wanted fresh. I eliminated microwave foods, things with too much salt, and tried to eat more natural food, things that were cooked in a kitchen as opposed to a factory."

After 20 years, the size 6 Alba, mother of two children, has perfected her skills on the kitchen. She has a new book, The Honest Life: Living Naturally and True to You, which will include her favorite recipes.
