Zoe Saldana has stopped dieting and working out.

The 35-year-old actress has always been an active person, but she admits she's been ''lazy'' over the past year and has been enjoying gorging on high-calorie foods.

She said: ''I've been an active person my whole life. The past year has been the only time in my life that I haven't been to the gym. I've been lazy instead of training for something and pushing myself.''

The 'Guardians of the Galaxy' star insists she was never ''trying to be skinny'', but trained regularly to keep her fitness levels up.

She explained: ''I just like to know how much endurance I have. But this past year I've let myself go. I've been eating a lot of Chinese, pasta, rice, beans...''

Meanwhile, the brunette beauty secretly tied the knot with her beau Marco Perego last summer in England after a month of dating, but she admits the wedding felt ''right'' for them both.

She explained to Net-a-porter magazine: ''I'm not a private person, but I am discreet, so it felt right.''

Zoe previously dated Bradley Cooper until March 2012, and had an 11-year relationship with Keith Britton until 2011.
