That's what Zellweger said about her "diet" before playing the first film:
Renee, who was speaking in New York, recalled the overeating she had to do to gain weight for the first film in 2001.
"It sounds like heaven," she said. "For two days it's bliss and then you're full, OK? And you can then indulge all your fantasies about over-eating.
"Fantasies about non-stop chocolate consumption or your fantasies about ordering the pizza and the spaghetti and the garlic bread.
"Then after a week your glucose levels are going crazy. You're up and down and all over the place. It doesn't feel good, and no one wants to hear that, but it's the truth."
Then there is the dieting afterwards. "It was horrible," said Renee. "On one side it's fantastic because you get to go back to taking care of yourself, so you feel wonderful, but the first lap around the track I felt like I had a toddler on my back."

But it's also right that when talking about Supersize me she did say:
"I had a panic attack with all the specialists talking about how bad this is for you, long term, putting on that much weight in short periods of time and they're all saying, 'You must stop this now or you're going to die'."
So maybe you are right tomandkara, and this time she is really worried about the rapid weight gain and not about overeating. But in the past she didn't seem to have the same opinion. Poor thing, for an actress her body is her work, so I suppose she has a lot of pressure to be skinny right after finishing filming BJ
