Helen Hunt of “Mad About You” fame may be 56 years-old, but she has a body that women decades younger would kill for, and she’s crediting it to her passion for exercise.

Daily Mail reported that Hunt was photographed at a beach in Malibu on Sunday wearing a very small bikini that left nothing to the imagination. She looked half her age as she enjoyed a day in the sun with her boogie board, appearing to not have a care in the world.

This comes after Hunt revealed that she does not diet, as she stays in shape through lots of exercise instead.

“I do eat well. I try to love my body,” Hunt explained. “That is what I tell my daughter. I say, ‘Love every bite of food. Love your body. We’re all going to be dead soon.’ Actually I don’t say that last thing to her.”

“I don’t go to a gym ever. I don’t diet ever. I used to diet but sometime after the eighties, it made me miserable, but I do like to walk, run, and I do like to surf when I can just to warm it up, and I do enjoy doing yoga when I can get there,” the Academy Award-winner added. “It’s a religion for me to never diet. I think it makes you unhappy. It makes for unhappy things, so I just decided I would rather not have the perfect body, not have the body I want than diet. And when I dropped the idea of dieting, my body went closer to the way that I was wanting it to be. So for me, it’s never worked.”

This comes as Hunt is preparing for the reboot of her sitcom “Mad About You,” which she costarred in with actor Paul Reiser. The show originally aired on NBC, but it has since been picked up by Spectrum Originals for what is supposed to be a one-off limited series.

“I have remained very, very close friends with Paul,” she said recently. “Reboot, or no reboot we have lunch once a month. We really enjoy and care for each other.”
