Hyeri, former Girl's Day member and now a popular actress, recently opened up about her weight loss journey, revealing that she shed 5kg by avoiding carbohydrates.
On August 16, Hyeri appeared on the YouTube channel '117' in an episode titled "What's Up With You? You Keep Becoming 'Dexon' in Front of Hyeri." During the interview, Hyeri shared some personal stories and insights into her life.
Hyeri talked about her eating habits, demonstrating a dish made with chicken thigh meat and zucchini. She confessed, "I’m not much of a cook, but I save a lot of recipes from social media. Sometimes, I’m too lazy to cook, and if I crave something like chicken feet, I just can't make it. I usually eat a lot and don’t really know what it feels like to be full."
She then revealed her method for losing weight: cutting out carbs. "When I was filming 'Victory,' I gained quite a bit of weight, even though my role didn’t require it. When I told the director, he said, ‘I never asked you to do that.’ After filming, I needed to lose the weight, but I didn’t want to exercise."
Hyeri continued, "So, I stopped eating carbs for five months and lost about 4-5kg. I originally planned to avoid carbs until Christmas Eve, to enjoy champagne with my parents, but I ended up stopping earlier. I was worried people might catch me eating carbs after I said I wouldn’t, so I just quit," she said with a laugh.
Back in May, Hyeri mentioned on her YouTube channel that she had been off carbs for four months, and after three months, her skin started to improve. She added, "Even on my days off, I indulge, but I never skip my skincare routine when a project is coming up."
