Desperate to finish losing the fifty-six pounds she gained during her pregnancy, Angelina Jolie has drastically cut down to just 1,00 calories a day until she fits back into her size 2 clothes, a report from In Touch claims. "She's been eating three to four tiny meals and working out for an hour or more every day," says an insider cited by the magazine.

That could lead to trouble, the article suggests. Family physician Dr. Walt Larimore talked to the magazine and says if that is indeed her calorie count, Angie's daily calorie intake isn't enough support her or 3 month old twins Knox and Vivienne, whom she's breastfeeding. "If someone is taking in fewer calories, their nutrition level is dangerously low," says Dr. Larimore, (the magazine notes that the doctor hasn't treated Angelina. "She'll have vitamin and mineral deficiencies."

But according to an insider cited in the story, the already svelte actress, who dispelled eating disorder rumors after the death of her mother in 2007, still wants to lose the last 28 pounds of her pregnancy weight. At the Changeling premiere on October 4 in NYC, a source says that Angelina, 33, wore a custom made corset to give her body a sleeker shape.
And even though her partner, Brad Pitt, has been telling her she's gorgeous, the source claims that "as usual, Angelina won't listen." She certainly looked great. Is she dropping he weight too quickly, some women are able to do that right after having a baby (or in this case babies) others can't. Perhaps she is just one of the lucky ones.
