Washington, Aug 30 : Actress Jenny McCarthy has revealed that she still sticks to some of the dieting techniques that helped her lose 60 pounds of baby weight more than six years ago.

The comic star had joined her local Weight Watchers after having son Evan in 2002.

"I still kind of count points in my head," Us magazine quoted her as saying.

She insists that eating right food is the key to maintaining a good physique.

She said: "Working out tightens you up and helps burn calories, but what you put in your mouth makes all the difference."

McCarthey who suffered from 60 food allergies had switched to a diet free of wheat, dairy and sugar apart from avoiding meat and sustained on fresh fruits and veggies.

In fact, she has influenced her actor husband Jim Carrey, who has sworn off wheat and dairy, and takes an active role in cultivating natural ingredients.

She added: "We just planted our own organic garden in the backyard, and we love it!" (ANI)
