Ricky Gervais – 22 Lbs
Ricky Gervais, one of Britain’s most recognized comedians, is best known for producing the original British version of “The Office.” However, when he was younger, he aspired to be a pop sensation and worked in the music industry, briefly managing the band Suede. His weight loss journey served as more of a wake-up call than a dream. Gervais made certain lifestyle modifications after finding he was overweight, but he did not change his food like others. Instead, he concentrated on exercise, running, and hitting the gym for weightlifting. Gervais plays a role in the short film “Save Ralph.”
