Ginnifer Goodwin dieting on Weight Watchers for 23 years. Dieting is good but Ginnifer Goodwin has been doing it since she was 9 years old. The 32-year-old Big Love actress has been on the Weight Watchers plan most of her life.

Goodwin was introduced to the dieting plan when she was a chubby fourth-grader. "I have been a member of Weight Watchers for 23 years and I'm back on it right now," she told Health magazine. "I've never had a dramatic weight problem, it's just that I tend to indulge, and then I need to get back on track so I can button my pants."

The actress said she changed her eating habits in the fourth grade because she was a heavy little girl. Goodwin said she was also very unhappy. "And I remember my mom making dinner for me the first night that I was on this new program, and I burst out crying because the vegetables were green, and I thought she was trying to starve me to death," Ginnifer said.

"I like the elliptical, because I feel like I'm dancing," Goodwin says. "And I'm also big on speed-walking outside. I'll speed-walk a couple of miles, get a cup of coffee, speed-walk back. It's so easy. Just break a sweat for 30 minutes and you're fine."
