Jessica Alba is torn between working full-time in her growing business or continuing her acting career.

According to HNGN, the 33-year old actress, admits that she is tempted to seek a new career path and give up acting in a recent interview with Us Weekly's sister UK magazine, HELLO! Fashion Monthly,

"It's tempting to leave acting completely and focus on my company. It's definitely more fulfilling. And when I put my time into it, I feel like I'm doing something that's productive and there's a real outcome. With entertainment, I feel like you're just throwing stuff against the wall and you don't know if anyone's going to see it."

According to Latino Fox, Alba's three -year old company, The Honest Company, which focused on selling eco-friendly baby products, has been growing through these years and has made $150 million in revenue last year. It also has plans join the stock exchange race in the near future.

During the interview, the former FHM and Maxim cover girl said that she had to transform through these years to accommodate her new role as a mother to daughters, Honor Marie, 6, and Haven Garner, 3.

"I don't care about [weight] as much after having kids. I'm bigger than I was before, and I'm totally fine with it. I embrace how I look in a different way."

"I don't feel any pressure to stay in shape for anyone else. When I was younger, I used to do the 'body builder' diet, which is awful. Everything is steamed, and it's just a handful of everything. I hated my life - it was so miserable! Having some sort of balance and moderation is key," she further said.

Inquisitr remembered that Jessica Alba started her acting career since she was 13 years old in the film Camp Nowhere. She also starred in James Cameron's Dark Angel.

 

She has also been part of the cast of blockbusters like Sin City, Into the Blue and Good Luck Chuck.
