  • Replaced soda and alcohol with sparkling water.

  • Cut out breakfast completely except for coffee with almond milk and no sugar.

    Exercise Routine

    Along with diet, the redditor followed a consistent exercise routine that involved:

  • Doing morning workouts at home.

  • Performing Darebee OX and Brute abs workouts.

  • Incorporating ankle weights while doing Brute abs workouts.
