Rebel Wilson is saying goodbye to 2020 by sharing one last reflection on her “year of health” during which she accomplished her goal of losing 27 kilograms.
“Signing off for 2020!” she captioned an Instagram post featuring two before-and-after photos (above and below) from her journey. “I like these two pictures cause together they represent the UPHILL JOURNEY I’ve been on this year with my YEAR OF HEALTH mission.”
The Pitch Perfect star actually met her goal a month early, sharing a snapshot of her weigh-in on Instagram in late November. “Even though it’s not about a weight number, it’s about being healthy, I needed a tangible measurement to have as a goal and that was 75 [kilograms],” she wrote. The scale read 74.6 kilograms.
All year, Wilson worked alongside celebrity trainer Jono Castano (above), who runs Acero Gym in the Sydney suburb of Kensington. He helped her develop a simple but effective fitness regimen (7 days a week!), and she also cut sugar and junk food from her diet.
The actress reportedly followed the Mayr Method, a restrictive diet inspired by the “Mayr Cure” created by Austrian physician Franz Xaver Mayr, M.D, which eliminates sugar and caffeine, reduces gluten and dairy, and encourages chewing food 40 to 60 times. According to People, Wilson visited Austria’s detox and wellness center VivaMayr to help her achieve results with the method.
At 40, she’s proud of what she accomplished over one short (and overall challenging) year. “Guys, now I gotta think: what will my goal/s be for 2021??” she continued her reflection. “Thanks for following my adventures this year and to all the people who made 2020 so special!” She finished by encouraging fans and followers to create a plan for achieving their own goals: “What are your goals for next year? Believe in yourself, work hard, you can do it!”
The comments section filled with congratulations and awe, and many shared their personal aspirations for the new year. “What a great close to a crazy year! So much love for you, Rebs!” director Mark Hapka commented.
Another fan added, “Your journey has been the most wholesome thing to see in 2020. Regardless of body size or not your smile is beaming of confidence and self assurance. I have walked the same path and it is not easy! I just wanna commend you.”
“You look fabulous and inspired me to do the same,” another wrote. “Here’s to a happy, healthy 2021.”
