The man page for lvreduce says:

-L, --size [-]LogicalVolumeSize[bBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE]
Reduce or set the logical volume size in units of megabytes. With the -
sign the value will be subtracted from the logical volume's actual size
and without it it will be taken as an absolute size.

...so it thought you were resizing the LV to 1G, and lvreduce probably
is smart enough to tell that the filesystem on the LV is 2G in size.
You probably wanted "lvreduce -L 2G /dev/testlvm/lvhome" or "lvreduce -L
-1G /dev/testlvm/lvhome".
