In the first part of the video, filmed in March 2025, the woman shows what her body looked like before she started her fitness journey. She wasn't obese, but she had a chubby tummy area and wanted to work on toning her glutes and overall physique.

She shows both a side view and a front view, showing the areas she wanted to improve. By September 2025, the transformation is incredible. Her tummy is now flat and toned, with signs of a six-pack coming in. Her arms are leaner, her glutes are more toned, and her overall figure looks amazing. The difference is clear, and seven months of hard work paid off.

Tips for healthy eating when losing weight

Content creator @gifted_dine0_gifts also answered questions in the comments, revealing that she cut out sugar, sodas, and junk food. She also shared that she eats brown rice, brown bread, sweet potatoes, beans, and lentils, and focuses on eating more protein and fibre.

According to experts at NHS, eating the right foods is just as important as exercising when trying to lose weight. A healthy diet should include at least two portions of vegetables in every main meal, protein like beans, fish, eggs, or meat, and wholegrain carbs like potatoes, bread, rice, or pasta. It's also important to watch your portion sizes and keep an eye on your calorie intake.
