Gwyneth Paltrow is depressing

She's been on Glee, released a new cookbook and just landed a record deal. So, Gwyneth is feeling rather chuffed with herself, isn't she?

She graced the cover of Self magazine and talks about being in the best shape of her life.

"I never thought that I'd be considered to have a good body. I was bony up top and kind of dumpy on the bottom. But my trainer, Tracy Anderson, completely changed my legs, butt, arms and stomach. I feel better than ever, too," said Gwyneth.

Her biggest problem area? "My butt! My butt, butt, butt. When Tracy met me, she said that I had a long, square butt that she was going to redesign, and I was, like, 'Yeah? Good luck.' The amazing thing is, she was right! And it's still changing!"

We know that she's a celebrity and she always has to look good and exercise is good for you, but aren't her eating habits and exercise regime a bit much?

"I say I always eat right, but last night, I had fried clams, pasta with duck sausage and two glasses of red wine. When I want to lose, I eat less pasta, bread and potatoes. Before last year's Iron Man 2 premiere, I did green juices and salads for three days."

"I do 45 minutes of cardio five days a week, because I like to eat. I also try for 45 minutes of muscular structure work, which is toning, realigning and lengthening. If I'm prepping for something or I've been eating a lot of pie, I do two hours a day, six days a week for two weeks."

Would you ever submit yourself to this kind of exercise and diet regiment?
