Lu Yu, who insists on losing weight all year round and refutes rumors that he only eats a few grains of rice per meal, went to interview Jia Ling, who lost 100 pounds in a year. When the two thin people stood together, they looked at each other and smiled, and were filled with emotion. What's even more touching is their dialogue, which shows a Jia Ling who has become thinner, more beautiful and stronger!
Jia Ling’s success is difficult to copy.
Only those who have truly experienced losing weight will understand how difficult it is to lose 100 kilograms of meat. For example, Lu Yu’s weight is about 80 kilograms. Jia Ling is equivalent to losing 100 kilograms of meat every day. Lu Yu, who was wrapped around him, was thrown directly to the ground.
But objectively speaking, Jia Ling’s successful weight loss experience is difficult for ordinary people to copy, and it requires strong financial resources and terrible willpower.
On January 3, 2023, Jia Ling began to receive professional weight loss training. To this end, she built a private gym in her company and hired a team of professional coaches.
Many netizens questioned Jia Ling’s weight loss too quickly, why is her skin not sagging? The professional coach scientifically calculated and formulated a 10-month weight loss training plan based on her physical condition, and warned her that "there will be enough muscle support to prevent the skin from sagging."
As the saying goes, "30% training, 70% eating", Jia Ling's cousin learned to be a chef. She specially hired her cousin to be responsible for her diet. She strictly controlled the intake every day, 20 grams of oil and 5 grams of salt, which was unbeatable. .
Jia Ling has been working in the entertainment industry for many years and is under a lot of pressure. Jia Ling has long been accustomed to eating and drinking to relieve stress. However, since she started to lose weight, she has reduced social interactions, almost never appeared in public places, and changed her drinking to drinking tea.
Regarding the fat-reduction meals she has been eating for nearly a year, Jia Ling humorously described: "Fat-reduction meals are the scum of the food industry! When you swallow the last bite, you will still feel so hungry! They seem to have been here, but , I’ll leave right now!”
As her weight decreases, Jia Ling’s desire for food tastes gradually decreases. “Everything tastes delicious. At first, I wanted to eat Sichuan hot pot, and later it was boiled mutton and Chaoshan beef balls. , steak, and finally salmon, getting healthier and healthier."
In July 2023, Jia Ling, who had been "retreating" for 6 months, secretly went to Haikou to watch Jay Chou's concert, and even directed the fans to sing a chorus in front of the auditorium, but because She had lost so much weight that no one recognized or imagined that it was Jia Ling.
On September 1, 2023, Jia Ling, who had been losing weight for 8 months, completely collapsed!
She lay on the ground and asked herself: Do people have to live like this? Am I still alive? Is there still a heartbeat? Still have thoughts?
Giving up on herself, she asked her assistant to order a bunch of skewers, opened a bottle of red wine, and begged the assistant: "Come have a drink with me."
That night, Jia Ling ate cucumbers and a few skewers of oil. I ate a side dish, a bunch of chicken feet, and a small glass of red wine. I weighed in and gained 3 pounds the next day. But Jia Ling has no regrets about this. She said frankly: If she hadn’t had that night of indulgence, maybe she would have given up and could only jump higher by squatting down!
Sha Yi saw Jia Ling who had successfully lost weight for the first time, patted her back, and asked distressedly: "You haven't become less depressed, have you?" Jia Ling replied lightly: "No!"
