Gwyneth Paltrow struggled to give up her strict diet and exercise regime to gain weight for new movie COUNTRY STRONG, admitting she "panicked" and even lied to producers when she continued to exercise.
The normally-svelte Hollywood actress piled on the pounds to play a washed-up, alcoholic country singer in the film.
Paltrow was ordered to eat fattening foods and stop working-out, but the Iron Man star hated the idea of getting fat and hit the gym in secret.
She tells TV host Chelsea Handler, "The nightmare thing about it is I had to stop working out. At first I panicked so I would work out a little bit and then I had to lie and be like, 'No I didn't work out'. I'd be on the treadmill and be like, 'I really have to stop this'."
And Paltrow is still struggling to get back into her regular routine, months after filming wrapped.
She adds, "My body didn't really fall apart until right after we finished the movie and now I'm having problems."
