Ashley Tisdale In Shape: I'm Too Skinny, Love Carbs

"High School Musical's" Ashley Tisdale shows off her curves on the January 2009 cover of Shape magazine. She talked about her diet, exercise and love of bread.

Here some of the interview with the 23-year-old:

On always being petite: "I was always super thin -- too skinny, actually. I felt like someone could break me in half."

On her guilty pleasure foods: "I love carbs. Bread, corn bread, french fries--all that stuff."

On eating healthy: "I've found I'm definitely eating better since I started working out more rigorously. It kind of happened naturally. I don't really crave junk food that often now."

On personal trainer Christopher Hebert: "He's cute, which makes it fun, and he never lets our exercise session get boring."

She started working with Hebert last summer. They do 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of strength training three or four days a week. "She really enjoys cardio--especially running stairs with a medicine ball," says Hebert, who makes her hold a weighted ball overhead and jogs up and down a set of stairs 10 times, skipping every other step.

Who's Ashley Tisdale?


so theyre putting nobody's on the cover of magazines now...

I know a homeless guy on my street who could really use a bost, they need to put him on the cover of this magazine. and give him some food & liquor too, hes starving..­.and parched.

She is an actress on the Disney channel program the Suite life of Zack and Cody, not really a nobody but unless you have kids who watch this stuff you would not have any clue.

[Topanga2009]

She's adorable! Her body is smokin, particularly her abs. And I love the bathing suit--I'd love to find the same one.

[Egalitare]

I just want to take a step back and give props to Disney for allowing all sorts of girls to be their "face." Raven is certainly not skinny, nor is Sabrina Bryan or Monique Coleman.

[Catothemuchyounger]

She looks good to me. And sure, they touch up the photos. They always do. So what?

Tastes in womens' shapes vary widely, but I can't see how anyone would call her unattractive, even if you liked women with more body fat.

As for the comment about celebrities with time to workout three hours a day, that may be acceptable coming from somebody who works out and wishes they have more time to do more. But usually, I hear that kind of thing from people who are too lazy to get off their own fat butts and hit the weights or the ski or rowing machine. Anybody that works out even two or three times a week for 45 min. can't help looking and feeling a lot better. Sure, there are people who have no time for even that much exercise. But the great majority are just not willing to do it. Which is fine, but they have a lot of nerve carping at those who do.

she's cute...wha­t's with the ugly comments?

[LMPE]

Too skinny? Any skinner and I could use her to write a letter.

[SpaghettyIrish]

She's got no curves and a Brittany Murphy-ish face but only half as attractive.

[crazyaboutmagazines]

she looks fab on the cover. I love her defined stomach

In her old role of Maddie Fitzpatrick on THE SUITE LIFE OF ZACK AND CODY she was often characterized as super-skinny because her impoverished character couldn't afford food. Yet, Maddie's two jobs were as the candy counter girl at the Tipton Hotel and as cook/cashier/mascot at the Chicken Shack. Showbiz is odd, no?

[Loisebby]

What happened to the hot cover-girl. Taking one look at her explains why men turn gay!

[wanj]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!

[Scott Mendelson - Huffpost Blogger]

I think she looks lovely there, but I still miss her old nose.

[unfettered]

Milk came outta' my original nose.

Ashley's Dieting Tips: "First, be 19. Then..."

[CalexenderJ]

"Then be a celebrity who can devote 3 hours every day to staying in shape and can afford a personal trainer"

[nibblybits]

Then have a good airbrusher and photoshopper on standby.

[AZAcct]

I hate when they put 18-23 year olds on the covers of fitness magazines.­...but then again, 14 year olds walk the runways...

I think it's more impressive when I see the older women/mothers who workout...

Being thin and fit at 23 doesn't make you a fitness expert...i­t just makes you young and still lucky.

This is coming from a 20 something year old....

[luluLA]

and.... we already know this young girl will go under the knife to achieve what air brushing and a workout can't fix.
not impressed!

[johnnygoodwud]

major retouch on the cover, but am most impressed with the workout. i have run stairs, but never with a med. ball over my head. that will get you in shape real fast. good for her

[hartkid]

I wasn't exactly thinking "break" in half...
