Hilary Duff has been criticised for following Gwyneth Paltrow's diet technique

Fans are less than impressed with Hilary Duff 's admission she "starves off her hunger".

The Lizzie McGuire star, 35, revealed she often uses the controversial methods which have also been part of Gwyneth Paltrow's dieting regime.

Speaking to the Lipstick on the Rim podcast, she said: "Sometimes I try to — Gwyneth’s in trouble for saying this — but sometimes I try just to drink coffee in the morning and starve off my hunger."

The actress also confessed to "waking up hungry" a lot of the time since she started the diet technique.

Now, following Hilary's latest revelations, fans were once again uniting in the criticism surrounding the methods.

Taking to Twitter to vent their opinion, one user wrote: "About diet, please don't listen to Gwyneth Paltrow if she says to nearly starve yourself, like I heard you might be doing. Remember what happened to Karen Carpenter."

Another added: "Hilary Duff Casually Admitting She Tries to "Starve Off" Her Hunger Is Disappointing."

Hilary did admit to being "obsessed" with cauliflower rounds which she described as "super clean". She revealed her favourite way to cook the product was to crisp them in the air fryer.

To complete her current favourite dish, she adds egg salad, a fried egg, avocado or vegan sausage.

Attempting to stave off the starvation talk slight, the mum-of-three made sure she revealed she took in "lots of calories" when she put together her kids' dinners.

"If we’re being honest, yeah, I eat a chicken nugget in the morning while I’m packing lunches and there’s one left over," she admitted. "Pop it down the hatch!"

Actress Gwyneth first shared her debatable wellness routine in March and was quickly questioned by fans, celebrities and medical professionals. At the time, the Shallow Hal star, 50, said her decision was due to her medical conditions.

She has recently also released her controversial Mother's Day list. The star's 87-item list went from weird to the ridiculous as the usual perfume and chocolates gifts made way for an abundance of sex toys.

In total, Gwyneth included four vibrators on the raunchy list as well as also having a lube set. The prices were also quite hefty, with some items ready to set a buyer back over $3,000.
