Comedian Ricky Gervais first became famous for his overweight character David Brent on the hit British version of the sitcom The Office. While his weight may have helped him become famous, eventually he decided to lose it through diet and exercise. Now, Gervais has lost just over 40 pounds!

Today, Gervais is mad that people didn’t tell him he was overweight earlier! “Why didn’t anyone tell me I was fat?” he joked to People Magazine. “People say I look great now. They then say I used to be pear-shaped. Why didn’t anyone tell me? I would have worked out earlier.”
