“Is this what other people experience all the time?”
ICYMI, Rebel Wilson has documented her journey to lose weight on Instagram.
In an IG post now deleted from last summer, Rebel shared his goals, writing: “I’ll be honest with you – with my ‘Year of Health’ mission, I’m trying to reach 75kg [165 lbs] and in terms of career, I’m trying to put one of my films into production before the end of the year! Both require daily effort and there are constant setbacks – but I am working hard x. “
She frequently updated fans on her social media efforts, never shying away from sharing when she had a rough day or hit the road.

So, last November, The Hustle actor revealed that she achieved her goal “with a month to spare.”
Well, earlier this week in The Morning Crew with Hughesy, Ed and Erin, Rebel was candid about life after losing weight, calling it “interesting”.
“I liked to think it looked good on all sizes and things,” she said. “And I’ve always been very confident, so it’s not like I’m not confident and now I’m overconfident. I think what has been really interesting is how other people treat you.”
“Sometimes, being bigger, people don’t necessarily look at you twice,” she continued. “Now that I’m in good shape, people offer to take my purchases to the car and keep the doors open for you.”
This sounds like a strange and distorted alternative universe, where you get special privileges if you fit society’s standards of beauty. Oh wait … haha, this is just real life 🙃. Imagine if we went out of our way to extend kindness to everyone, no matter what they look like.
Anyway, congratulations on reaching your goals, Rebelde! I love it for you 🙌.
