Rebel Wilson has revealed how many calories she eats in a day.
The 40-year-old movie star recently did a new Instagram Live about her ‘Year Of Health’ in which she lost more than 60lbs.
The 5ft3in actress explained that while she is in the process of shedding pounds ‘I do try to stay under 1,500 calories, because again of my body type.’

The Bachelorette star confessed: ‘If I wanna lose weight in that week, I kinda have to stay under the 1,500 each day.’
However, now that she has arrived at her goal weight of 75kg (approximately 165lbs), she is transitioning ‘more into like a maintenance phase, and probably be about 2,000/2,500 because I do work out like a beast.’
‘So I can eat a bit more, now that I’m – now that I’ve hit my goal weight and I’m “maintaining”,’ said the Pitch Perfect star, adding gamely: ‘So yeah. Hopefully I don’t sound like the biggest w***** saying all this stuff.’
Rebel has credited Vivamayr, a luxury medical center and holistic retreat in Lake Altaussee, Austria, for her astonishing weight loss journey.
Sensation: The antipodean blonde recently returned to Vivamayr as something of a ‘bookend’ to her ‘Year Of Health,’ she explained on Instagram Live
The antipodean blonde recently returned to Vivamayr as something of a ‘bookend’ to her ‘Year Of Health,’ she explained on Instagram Live.
She explained that ‘for me a high-protein diet was the way to go,’ since genteelly munching a chicken breast leads to ‘eating mindfully.’
As a result of mindful eating ‘you feel satisfied and then you stop eating, whereas if I’m eating a whole freakin’ bag of chips, I’m just like devouring that and suddenly there’s a ton of calories and game over.’
Rebel dished: ‘So basically I changed to a high-protein diet. Does this mean I eat healthy and clean every day? No, far from it, but I am prioritizing where I can – if I go out to a restaurant, I’ll try the salmon, a chicken breast.’

She confessed: ‘Like I don’t eat that much meat. That’s why it was hard. I was mainly vegetarian. But now I really have to concentrate at it, because my body just responds well to protein,’ and she may try a ‘protein smoothie, ‘cause that’s easier for me to eat, with some vegan protein in it, which is awesome.’
During the Instagram Live she revealed that before the Year Of Health her previous lowest weight was caused by a life-threatening bout of malaria.
‘I was at my skinniest when I had malaria when I almost died, when I came out of hospital everyone was like: “Wow what did you do?” I almost died…’ she said.
Now she is looking at the prospect of freezing her eggs, and part of the reason for the Year Of Health was to prepare herself for this process.

‘I was thinking about fertility and having good quality eggs in the bank, so I was like – OK, I’m going to do this. I’m going to get healthy,’ Rebel dished.
She is currently dating the dashing 29-year-old Jacob Busch, whom she described as ‘very private’ while chatting with fans on Instagram.
Rebel said ‘we dated before I started any of this health journey, as well as now. So that goes to show you, ladies: you don’t have to be a certain size to get a boyfriend.’
Their relationship started last September and intensified when she came back to Los Angeles after previously self-isolating in Australia amid the coronavirus lockdowns.

She revealed this summer that before she embarked on her weight loss journey she in fact made sure to keep the pounds on because of her movie career.
‘I had a job where I was paid a lot of money to be bigger, at times which kind of can mess with your head a bit,’ she explained to The Sun.
‘I turned 40 as well in March and so I thought, this is going to be the year for me to just concentrate on the health benefits,’ the The Hustle actress dished.
