1. She’s Motivated By Her Future

Wilson notably made 2020 her “Year of Health,” and documented her journey on social media. She revealed her reasons for doing so in an interview with People. She says that her desire to have kids in the future was a major motivation for her. “It's almost like I didn't think of my own needs. I thought of a future child's needs that really inspired me to get healthier."

2. She Eats A High-Protein Diet

Wilson tells People that she made a lot of changes to her diet. She says that she now eats more protein, and limits her carbs.“Before I was probably eating 3,000 calories most days, and because they were normally carbs, I would still be hungry,” she said. “So, I've really changed to eating a high-protein diet, which is challenging because I didn't used to eat a lot of meat. I eat fish, salmon, and chicken breast.” "The Recommended Daily Allowance for men is 56 grams a day, while for women it's 46 grams. That's about as much as you'd get in 4 to 5 chicken drumsticks or two large hamburgers. Other ways to reach near those numbers: 2 ½ pork chops, 15 slices of bacon, or an 8-ounce steak," says our sister site Eat This, Not That!

3. She Used The Lockdown To Get Healthy

Wilson made 2020 her “Year of Health,” and the pandemic didn’t stop her. She tells People that lockdowns helped her stick with it. “I definitely think with the slow down, it did help,” she says. "I think I was emotional eating, and overeating at times, because I wasn't loving myself enough either. And it does come down to that self-worth and self-love."

4. She Believes In Balance

Wilson is eating healthier, however, that doesn’t mean she’s restricting herself. "I'm just trying to go for overall balance, overall healthy balance," she said to People. "I have this state of being, which is not my quote, but I go 'Nothing is forbidden.' We’ll be like, 'Should we get In-N-Out burger?' And I'm like, 'Nothing is forbidden.' I can go there, I just might eat half of what I used to eat before. You know? And I'll have a burger, and a few fries, and then you feel fine."

5. She’s Confident

Wilson tells The Morning Show that she has always been confident. She says that her weight loss has helped boost her confidence. “I like to think I looked good at all sizes and stuff and I’ve always been quite confident,” she said. “So, it wasn’t like I wasn’t confident and then now I’m, like, super confident.” "Self-image is not permanently fixed. Part of our self-image is dynamic and changing. We can learn to develop a healthier and more accurate view of ourselves, thus challenging the distortions in the mirror. Self-image change occurs over a lifetime. A healthy self-image starts with learning to accept and love ourselves. It also means being accepted and loved by others," says the Cleveland Clinic.

1. She Is Accountable

Rebel made herself accountable when she declared 2020 her Year of Health. "For the last few years, I've been theme-ing my years. So I had the 'Year of Fun,' last year I had the 'Year of Love,' and this year it's gonna be the 'Year of Health' because I turned 40 this year in March," she explained on The Drew Barrymore Show. "I never really focused on my health, which was probably obvious. I was going all around the world jet-setting everywhere and eating a ton of sugar. That was kind of my vice. I have a very sweet tooth. I love desserts.”

2. She Flaunts Her Achievements

Rebel makes sure to celebrate her achievements, sharing her progress with fans on social media. In fact, she confessed to People that she flaunts it "on Instagram shamelessly.” Not only does this keep her accountable, but allows her to celebrate her wins and motivates her to keep on going.

3. Her Approach to Weight Loss Is Both Physical and Mental

Rebel understands that losing weight is so much more than physical. “I think because I approached it from all areas ... the biggest thing that I haven't ever worked on was the emotional side, what I suffered from, I guess, as classical emotional eating … so I really worked on that side," she explained to Extra about how she approached her weight loss.

4. She Works Out Early

Rebel prioritizes exercise. "This week was super busy but I got up super early 3 times (6am 😜) and went on a hike...even did a couple of 100m sprints to get the heart rate even higher (although my 'sprint' is probably someone else's 'slow jog' 😝) but I felt proud of myself and now only 3kg's away from my goal weight!" she wrote in an Instagram post.

5. She Takes Pride in Her Achievements

Rebel continues to pat herself on the back for reaching her weight loss goals. In a recent social media post she shared a photo of herself at her “unhealthiest.” “I look back now at that girl and am so proud of what she’s become and achieved,” she wrote. “And just wanted to send out some encouragement to everyone out there struggling with weight or body issues or emotional eating. I feel you. I know what it’s like. But it’s never too late to start improving yourself and trying to be the best version of YOU possible. It’s not a race and it’s not a competition - it’s about respecting yourself and doing what’s best for YOU. So if you’re out there and reading this today, I just wanted to say: keep smiling and keep trying to be active! Love you guys.”

1. She Takes Supplements

Wilson shared some of her wellness tips in an interview with Byrdie. She says that she loves to take Olly supplements for different things. “My hair and my skin get put through a lot because I'm filming all the time. My nails do as well because I love gel nails, even though it's a bit damaging to my nails. So, I'll take the Heavenly Hair or Undeniable Beauty because it's got biotin, keratin, and vitamin C and E. Then, if I've had a stressful day, I take Goodbye Stress because it's got so many natural ingredients and helps you be a bit chilled. I'll often take Active Immunity if I've been around people because I've never actually ever taken a sick day off from work. If I'm writing, I'll take Laser Focus. I take Sleep at night. I love the sleep gummies because I think I'm now addicted to the taste, and also, it's got melatonin and l-theanine. I take them about 20 minutes before sleeping. A good night's sleep is very important so you can go crush the next day.”

2. Moderate Walking Works Best For Her

Wilson is open about wanting to get healthier. She tells Byrdie that she had tests done to see what exercises works best for her. “I had a lot of very expensive tests done on me last year when I was doing my year of health. I always thought you had to go running or keep your heart rate up. But for my body type, the way that I can lose unnecessary body fat is moderate walking. So not fast-paced, not power walking, just regular walking for an hour a day.”

3. She Uses Rollers

Wilson has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She tells Byrdie that one thing she uses is a facial roller. “I just bought this ice roller from Amazon for 20 bucks. You use it, especially under the eyes and on the jawline, and it just kind of really snatches everything first thing in the morning before you put your makeup on. I mainly only do it for filming days. They're like the jade rollers, but I kind of like the ice element of this one because It just depuffs your face.”

4. She Keeps Her Skincare Simple

Wilson shared some of her skincare tips in an interview with WhoWhatWear. She says that she has started to scale back her skincare routine. “You know, I used to do more steps, but normally in the morning, I just cleanse with something simple, like Dermalogica’s UltraCalming Cleanser ($39). I also love the SK-II products because I’m in London, and it’s a bit dry. I love their Eye Cream ($139), Serum ($245), and Moisturizer ($235).”

5. She Wears Sunscreen

Wilson makes sure to protect her skin from the sun. She tells WhoWhatWear that sunscreen is an important part of her skincare routine. “I’ll always apply Dermalogica's Sunscreen With SPF 50 ($75) because I’m so fair, but I love being out in the sun. Wearing sunscreen every single day is something that's kind of been ingrained in me as an Australian.”

1. She Swims

Brown loves to swim as a way to stay in shape. Even if it’s cold out, she’ll still go in the water. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself in an outdoor pool in the snow. She captioned the post, “The best feeling.” "Are you ready to take the plunge and try a new fitness activity? How about water exercise? Also known as aquatics, water exercise is one of the best non-impact fitness activities around and just about anybody can participate. Pregnant women, the elderly or overweight, individuals with arthritis or those recovering from an injury can all benefit from the wide variety of aquatics classes currently available," says ACE Fitness.

2. She Got In Shape For Love Island

Before making her debut on the show Love Island, Brown made sure to get in shape. She broke down her process to The Sun. “I hired a personal trainer for weight training, then would spend the rest sweating away on the treadmill,” she explained.

Being in the public eye, Brown has had to deal with body shaming. However, she tells The Sun that she is confident in herself, despite all the comments. “What the shamers need to realize is that there's a difference between someone who is unhealthy and overweight, and someone who's just a normal size,” she said. “I'm perfectly fit and happy now — just as I was before Love Island.”

4. She Stays Humble

For Brown, humility is key. She tells Glamour that while she’s confident in herself, she still stays humble. “No one is a ten out of ten. Except maybe Beyoncé. Don’t go in there thinking you are the be all and end all."

5. She Values Her Friendships

While Brown made her debut on a dating show, she didn’t just go on there to find love. She tells Glamour that her friendships are just as important to her as her romantic relationships. "Friendships to me are just as important as relationships. I know it’s not a friendship show, it’s a love show. I’m nervous about how the girls will react.”
