AMERICA FERRERA

America Ferrera screams body positivity. In fact, she’s also quite vocal about matters like gender equality and people’s overall welfare. Although the 36-year-old star struggles with weight loss and body image issues, she recently learned to ignore the negative comments she receives and has since focused more on herself. Now, she looks better than ever after burning off 30 pounds from her physique. Due her transformation, the actress remains a role model for many of her fans.

After spending the earlier years of her career mostly working on her looks, Ferrera eventually realized that what we have on the outside isn’t the only thing that matters in life. To this day, the actress reminds her fans to focus more on their passions instead of their looks and physical appearance, to focus their investments on the things they can do to help others along the way. Proper exercise, a good diet and a healthy mind-set can certainly go a long way.
