British actor Kate Winslet says she never follows crash dieting and would rather encourage young girls to have a healthy body image. “I’m not a twig — and refuse to be a twig. I’d like young girls who are screwed up about their bodies to think that it’s possible to have a healthy shape,” Winslet said.

“I don’t do crash diets or eat fish rather than meat and salads until they come out of my ears,” contactmusic.com quoted the 36-year-old as saying.
