Weight watcher Hayden Panettiere

Hayden Panettiere struggles to maintain her size.

The 'Heroes' actress admits her slender size 8 frame is not natural, and she finds it a "nightmare" having to constantly battle with her food cravings.

She said: "Sometimes I give in to my cravings but if you're a size 8, you have to watch what you eat most of the time. It's a nightmare!"

The 20-year-old beauty - who has previously fronted advertising campaigns for skincare brand Neutrogena and US clothing chain Candies - admits all her favourite foods contain carbohydrates, so she tries to restrict her intake to prevent herself from gaining more weight.

She added to Closer magazine: "I've got this voice in my head saying, 'Carbs, carbs, carbs! Pizza and pasta are best!' and I'm always fighting to turn it off."

Despite her weight battles, Hayden has previously confessed that she loves to wander around her house in the nude and doesn't mind if her roommate sees her naked.

She said: "She sees me buck-naked all the time. She walks in and I'm like, 'Look, I'm naked! Naked girl!' "
