Australian hunk Hugh Jackman was on a strict binge-eating diet to build himself up for X-Men 2. Jackman spent six months building up his physique to look like a muscle packed superhero.

And he admits the gruelling work out schedule left him feeling a little sorry for himself.

He says, "It's hard to change your body if it doesn't want to. I've been doing nausea-inducing strength training four or five times a week for an hour with my trainer Josh. He's the guy who worked with Angelina Jolie for Lara Croft."

"I also do 20 minutes of hard aerobic sessions three times a week. And I eat all the time. My breakfast is oatmeal with a scoop of protein powder, an egg white omelette, low-fat baked beans, low-fat cottage cheese, a couple of slices of ham and sauteed spinach. I eat five or six times a day, but I make sure not to eat any sugar, breads or pasta."
