We love hearing transformation stories and actress Rebel Wilson’s incredible 18kg (or 60 lbs) weight loss is no exception. She not only inspires us with her commitment to health but also her new sunnier outlook on life.
She set a goal and achieved it, all through hard work and cleaning up her diet. We’re sure there was a lot more work to it than that but in the interests of keeping things succinct, here are 3 important lessons we can take away from her lifestyle change.
-
Leave off the Sugar
It’s no secret that overeating can often be a symptom of deeper issues. Wilson recently revealed her own struggle with emotional eating, sharing how she would consume 3,000 calories per day.
“My way of dealing with it was just eating donuts,” she said after boldly making the decision to change her unhealthy lifestyle.
Instead of eating those sugary treats, Wilson said she would drink a bottle of water instead. It takes discipline but if Rebel Wilson can do it, so can you!

Follow a Diet Plan
While there are many diet plans that promise a lot, however, simply eliminating junk food, reducing dairy and gluten and cutting your sugar intake can be a simpler way to approach things as the Mayr Method suggests. Rebel reportedly follows this method and it has been working its wonders on her.

Start Walking
“I want you guys to know that the majority of exercise I’ve done this year has just been me going out for a walk,” the 40 year old actress tells her fans through her Instagram account. “That is free, you can do it, it’s safe.”
Physical activity can improve your metabolism and help you burn excess fats. 20-30 minutes of moderate to intense activity 3-5 times a week can help you strengthen your cardiovascular and immune system which is great for your overall health.
Wilson also mentioned the importance of being accountable. Doing things in secret might leave you discouraged and downhearted. Instead, be open about your goals, talk to your coaches or dietitians, track your progress, or share your weight loss journey on social media.
Losing weight might sometimes seem impossible but if you keep these three steps in mind and continue with them at a slow and steady pace, you’ll lose those excess pounds and get to your goals. That’s a guarantee!
