Fit Philosophy: Ginnifer Goodwin

Michele Foley — Tue, 22 May 2012 00:02:27 PDT

Happy birthday, Ginnifer Goodwin! The Once Upon a Time star turns 34 today, and to celebrate we're taking a look at how Ginnifer stays active and fit in her daily life.

Always on the go: Ginnifer often credits living in health-conscious LA for her active lifestyle. Whether she's going to Ballet Body or The Bar Method, her workouts gravitate toward leotards, the barre, and pliés. She also turns everyday excursions into an excuse to power walk, "I'll speed-walk a couple of miles, get a cup of coffee, speed-walk back. It’s so easy. Just break a sweat for 30 minutes and you’re fine."

It's a lifestyle not a diet: An outspoken fan of Weight Watchers, she credits the diet program for helping her maintain a healthy weight in realistic ways. She told People, "It takes time because you lose the weight slowly . . . You don't have to go through that horrible yo-yo cycle of binging." Even when counting points, Ginnifer can indulge in treats like her favorite dark chocolate or a pasta dinner. Ginnifer maintains a sense of balance when it comes to eating, so she never has to feel deprived.

Health is more than just weight loss: For Ginnifer, being healthy means being confident, feeling less stressed, and maintaining a well-rounded perspective in her life. She told Health, "Healthy is beautiful. Because what comes with health is a clear mind and a high spirit. When I’m not healthy, I can’t think straight, and I’m unhappy. I’ll realize that I’m an emotional mess, and it’s because I’m dehydrated. Or I’m cold and cranky, and it’s because I’m not exercising and my circulation is poor."

Once Upon a Time Stars Dish About Their Hopes For Season Two

Maggie Pehanick — Thu, 17 May 2012 05:30:01 PDT

ABC's hit show Once Upon a Time has been renewed for a second season of fairy-tale fun, and no one is more excited than the cast. We caught up with some of the stars of the show at ABC's Upfronts party in New York City and chatted about who they'd be excited to see on the show, and what upcoming ABC shows they're adding to their DVRs.

BuzzSugar: Where do you hope your character goes next season?

Josh Dallas (Prince Charming / David): I just hope it gets more and more complex and intricate. I hope they give more of the backstory of Charming and who he is. We still don’t know his real name. We don’t know the whole story with him and his mother and his father. I think what’s great is that we’re going to be able to go back and look at all the characters that we’ve already established and dig deeper and deeper into them, and also have new people from the fairy-tale world.

Buzz: Which characters from the fairy-tale world would you like to see introduced?

Ginnifer Goodwin (Snow White / Mary Margaret): Oh, I’d love to meet Ariel, Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty - her job might be a little boring though.

JD: I would love to see Jack and the Beanstalk. I would love to see Ariel, The Little Mermaid, there are so many!

Lana Parilla (The Queen / Regina): There have been rumors about a mermaid appearance so I’m sad that I won’t be playing it. Every little girl’s dream is to play a mermaid. I had all my cousins convinced I was a mermaid when I was little, I was a better swimmer and they couldn’t go as far as I could out in the ocean.

Ginnifer Goodwin knows just how to perk up an LBD for Spring - and it's all in the footwear. The actress showed off a classic LBD with a twist while out for dinner in LA, adding Prada's fuchsia striped espadrilles to her wardrobe basic. We love how she composed the look with a ladylike tilt, complementing her lacy lightweight jacket with a quilted Chanel bag. Of course, the main attraction is the burst of brights on her shoes of choice.
