Rebel Wilson gets real about weight loss journey: “I’m working hard”

Rebel Wilson has not been afraid to share the highs and lows of her health journey to her loyal followers, and has remained committed to staying on the right path. 

The Australian actress has recently been seen showing off her healthy figure, but has gotten real with her fans about what exactly keeps her motivated. 

“I’ll be honest with you guys - with my ‘Year of Health’ mission I’m trying to get to 75kg’s and career wise am trying to get one of my movies into production before the end of the year!” the star wrote in a post to Instagram. 

“Both of these things are requiring a daily effort and there’s constant setbacks - but I’m working hard x.”

Wilson left her followers with some words of encouragement to help motivate others who may need a hand during difficult times.

“Even if you have to crawl towards your goals, keep going x it will be worth it. Try and give a little bit of effort each day…” the 40-year-old said. 

“I know some days are frustrating as hell, you feel like giving up, you get annoyed at the lack of progress...but good things are coming your way.”

In January, Wilson announced that she would be making 2020 the year she changed her life around. 

In 2016, the actress admitted she didn’t feel any pressure to lose weight while working in Hollywood. 

“You know what? People say, ‘Don’t lose weight,’” Wilson told E! News. 

“You don’t want to be in that weird range of ‘are you skinny or are you fat’? Because how do you class yourself then? Weirdly, a lot of people say don’t.

“But then I guess when you’re doing movies with actresses who are super skinny and whatever and you got to do a photo shoot side by side … then you notice you’re twice the weight they are.”

Wilson says she is just focussing on her happiness: “You never want to be, like, too unhealthy because that’s bad. But you just want to be comfortable with who you are, whatever your size.”
