Shailene Woodley Only Ate 350 Calories a Day While Filming 'Adrift'

Shailene Woodley lasted on very little food while filming for her movie Adrift, where she plays a woman lost at sea for 41 days.

To mimic the weight loss that would naturally happen in that scenario, Shailene told The Times that she ate 350 calories per day.

“I can’t sleep when I’m hungry, so I would have a glass of wine to basically pass the f— out,” Shailene said about following the tough diet. “For the last two weeks I had a can of salmon, some steamed broccoli and two egg yolks every day.”

Of her co-star, Sam Claflin, Shailene said, “I don’t know that I could do it without Sam. We both really were there for one another in our moments of extreme exhaustion and hunger.”

Watch the trailer for Adrift, which is playing in select theaters now.
