Rebel Wilson has shared a body-positive message to fans after revealing on social media that she’s put on some weight during her recent vacation.
The 42-year-old actress took to Instagram on Saturday (July 2) and posted a photo of herself in a swimsuit standing by a pool while on her vacation in Cappadocia, Turkey, with girlfriend Ramona Agruma.
"I just noticed I put on 3 kg’s on my holiday," she shared. "I’m at an amazing all-inclusive resort…I’ve lost all self-control. But you know what? I can get up tomorrow and go to the gym, and hydrate and eat [healthily] and love myself."
The Pitch Perfect star continued: "It doesn’t help to be hard on yourself but I know what it’s like to feel guilty and not great after eating too much."
"But if you’re like me just know YOU are more than just your weight, your weight doesn’t define you, just try your best to be healthy and don’t be so hard on yourself. Be the best version of you," she concluded.
After posting the powerful message, fans commented on Wilson's post to praise her, saying that the post is a key reminder for everyone on their health journey.
One fan resonated with the message and said: "Wow! I really needed to read that! I went to Nepal and came back home gaining 3 kgs! I was sad and now I am feeling much better...Sending love on your way."
Another fan wrote: "Truth. We need to love ourselves better. We are more than our weight. And guilt is a wasteful emotion. Get up [and] do better. Thanks for the reminder!"
Musician and Actress Marissa Jaret Winokur also commented to share her health journey, writing: "I gained 20 back when life got a bit messy and you know what...I'm still me and will get back on it when it [is] in lines with my spirit!"
"Thank you for sharing all of you, I wish I had a role model like you when I was a kid. Your talent and charisma and star quality [don't] care what dress size you are," she continued.
Wilson's girlfriend, who she went public with last month, also sent her beau a sweet message, saying: "You are the best baby and the most beautiful girl. I love you."
Back in January 2020, Wilson announced on Instagram that she planned to make 2020 her "Year of Health" writing at the time that she "put on the athleisure and went out for a walk" and "trying to avoid the sugar and junk food".
In November of that year, she triumphantly announced on her Instagram story that she’d hit her weight loss goal of roughly 80 pounds one month early.
Wilson's body-positive message is an important reminder to all!
