40 Pounds by Ricky Gervais
Ricky Gervais was a bit of a late bloomer. It took him about forty years to really make it big. It wasn't until he was on the TV show “The Office” that he really became well-known. The show was so funny and entertaining that it broke records all over the world, and memes about it are still everywhere on the internet. The English comedian is a man with many skills: he writes, acts, plays music, and makes movies. Gervais was successful, but he still had problems, mostly with his body. Back in 2011, he decided he didn't want to be known as that overweight middle-aged comedian anymore, so he started his own weight loss journey. The star went on a strict diet and exercise plan, which helped her lose 40 pounds. Nice!
