I lost my lower belly fat in just FIVE weeks without spending a fortune – walking was key & so was drinking water
A WOMAN has shared how she lost her lower belly fat in just five weeks with five simple changes.
Jenni Ducklas took to social media to show off her new figure and how she achieved it.
In the clip, she said: “I did this in just five weeks, although my original plan was eight weeks long.
“So I’m gonna break down everything that I did.”
In the before and after images there was a visible difference in how much flatter Jenni’s stomach looked now.
The first step Jenni took to lose weight was to make sure she was getting cardio into her routine.
She revealed she would go to the gym to use the Stairmaster four times a week for twenty minutes, a swell as go on at least two runs a week.
Next, Jenni worked on her diet, she opted for a calorie deficit as well as eating gut-friendly food.
Fermented foods like kimchi and sauerkraut which improve digestion.
“The third thing I did was strength training,” she continued.
“I was strength training four times a week.”
On TikTok, Jenni shares some of her workout routines to lose fat and gain muscle which include weight training and pull-ups.
Jenni also increased her step intake daily and went from around 1,000 a day to 5,000.
She explained: “I don’t get that much movement in my day to day life and the work I do.
“So going from an average of 1 to 2,000 steps a day to 5,000, it was quite a big jump. So it did make a difference.”
Last but not least, Jenni revealed she drank plenty of water.
Studies have shown drinking plenty of water can help you feel fuller and stimulate your body to break down fat.
The clip has since gone viral on her TikTok account @jenniducklas with over 3 million views and 89k likes.
People were quick to thank her for the tips in the comments as they set about their own health journey.
One person wrote: “Ngl, so refreshing to hear a 5K step count – because it makes sense to go from barely any to at least 5K for it to make a difference, rather than thinking you NEED at least 10K from nothing.”
Another commented: “This is so encouraging. Can you talk about diet.”
“This is so motivating,” penned a third.
