Shailene Woodley went on an extreme weight-loss diet for the film “Adrift,” which is based on a true story. 

She told the The Times that for the last two weeks of filming, she ate just 350 calories a day: a can of salmon, steamed broccoli and two egg yolks. It left her feeling “miserable.”

“I can’t sleep when I’m hungry, so I would have a glass of wine to [fall asleep],” she said.
