The 41-year-old actress showcased her slimmed-down figure in form-fitting black faux leather leggings paired with a sheer black top subtly revealing her bra underneath.

The Pitch Perfect star added punk-rock edge to the look by layering her outfit with a $4,095 black-and-red plaid tweed bomber jacket from Balmain.

“I lost about 35 kilos (77 lbs),” she told the hosts of Australia’s Sunrise about her weight loss. She added that her life has “changed dramatically” in the past year and talked openly about struggling in the past with emotional eating.

“I went to the doctor’s and got my yearly check-up last week, and he’s like, ‘Oh my God, all your labs and your blood work is the best it’s ever been and you know, it’s kind of remarkable,’” she said happily.

“I’m proud of myself for doing it and also maintaining it this year…I’m proud of myself for improving my life for the better.”

“After a big, long day at work — we’d often shoot 16-hour days — my feet would get really sore and I’d have to kind of lie upside down and put my feet up on the couch at the end of a big day at work, and then now I don’t have that kind of thing happening,” she said about feeling better after her weight loss.

“I got a lot of pushback from my own team actually, here in Hollywood, when I said ‘Okay, I’m going to do this year of health, I feel like I’m really gonna physically transform and change my life,’ ” Rebel told the BBC about receiving a lot of pushback when she revealed her plans to “physically transform and change my life.”.

“And they were like, ‘Why? Why would you wanna do that?’ Because I was earning millions of dollars being the funny fat girl and being that person.”

“Like I did not need a tub of ice cream every night. That was me kind of numbing emotions using food, which wasn’t the healthiest thing,” she added. “I think it was dealing with not being a natural performer, and having to perform every day. And that pressure and internal stress to be able to perform like that.”

“It’s fascinating. Why are people so obsessed with women, in particular, about their looks?” Rebel said.

“I know what it’s like to be a woman who is essentially invisible to most people because of not being seen as traditionally beautiful or whatever. It’s crazy to try to fit that. It’s just better to be the healthiest version.”
