After years of strict dieting, Jennifer Garner is done depriving herself of her favorite foods!

"I mean, believe me, there's always a point in [a gown] fitting where I feel like, 'Why didn't I just try to lose four pounds and then I could wear any dress?' I just can't though," the 42-year-old told 'Yahoo Beauty' in a new interview.

"I dieted for so long in the middle of doing Alias and being a superhero, that there's something in me that can't do anything that extreme," she continued.

Jennifer played a CIA Agent on 'Alias' from 2001 – 2006.

Despite the occasional splurge, Jennifer — who has three children with husband Ben Affleck, 42 — noted she still maintains a healthy diet by dining on "a lot, a lot" of salads.
