She has a figure other women would kill for, but even Jennifer Garner enjoys the occasional cheat day.
The slender star stopped by Brentwood Country Mart to pick up what many actresses would consider banned - some pizza and carb loaded Italian.
Clearly excited to be ditching the carrot sticks for cheesy garlic sticks, Jen was all smiles as she picked up the tasty feast with daughter Violet in Santa Monica, California.
Showing off her super mum
skills, Jennifer managed to make it to her car with a large pizza in one
hand, a bag of sides over her arm and a drink holder with coffee - from
her favourite Brentwood Country Mart store Cafe Luxx.
The mother of three was defeated by the car door however, forcing her to pop the pizza - from Los Angeles eatery Louise's Trattoria - down briefly to get all the food and her seven-year-old into the vehicle.
The Dallas Buyer's Club actress donned a black and white stripped knitted sweater with tight blue jeans and knee high black boots for her food gathering outing.
Her tight jeans showed that despite not starving herself, Jennifer still has a svelte figure.
The actress - who is married to Argo star Ben Affleck - has previously said while she works hard in the gym she tries not to take fitness and diet too seriously.
The actress told SheKnows in a recent interview: 'One secret is to not freak out and not go so hard-core that I can’t sustain it, because I’ve done that before and it doesn’t work for me.'
And having cheat days is an important part of that.
'After everyone is in bed, I’ll go to a girlfriend’s house and have a glass of wine, and chocolate, and just dish.
'Then I switch to tea because I have to drive home. Time with your girlfriends is the most regenerative thing.'
The 40-year-old does have one
tip for mothers on how she keeps her children - Violet, Seraphina, 4,
and baby Samuel - and herself healthy.
'One thing I always do is right around 3 o’clock when everyone starts to get hungry, I make sure there are cut up vegetables out on the counter,' Jennifer said.
'There are carrots, bell peppers, sugar snap peas, lots of fresh vegetables. You have to have the food out in front of them.'
