- I do not encourage dieting and rather support making healthier changes to your individual everyday diet. If you want to change your body, please consult a doctor or similarly qualified individual. I do not recommend this diet and made this video to highlight how painful and dangerous diets can be.

Kpop idols do this diet while also dancing and practicing nonstop all day- that makes this diet all the more dangerous
+ they sleep like half the time you're supposed to sleep in a night.

! Ñm(((k9
I totally agree with you.They are just starving themselves.
This is a temporary diet for comebacks most of the time. If this was a constant diet, they would die of iron deficiency, anemia vitamin D deficiency, low blood pressure and more.
They don't just "feel" pressured they are being pressured.
Yes from fans and their managers
sometimes it's literally contract. even worse, sometimes they have plastic surgery in their contracts too
Frank Aiden yuppppppp
Its true, but this isnt a diet, its an eating disorder, if it was a diet, they would eat 3 full meals a day, this is just snacking
Gore Geous you can't try an eating disorder, this is a diet, a dangerous one that can lead to an ED.
well this explains why k-pop stars pass out on stage often
Indeed.
Shit...that happens?
It is scary how often that happens.
Michaelis Cassa-chan yehh i know it happend one time to Jimin from BTS
They're also just overworked to the bone. Starvation plus working day and night with few breaks will shut you down Fast
“I have no energy.”
*laughs in fasting*
I can relate at a high level lmao
Fasting doesnt work because you're body gets used to not having food. When you get back to eating you gain all of the fat you got rid of. I hope you stop soon and find something that works better. Although you're probably perfect how you are😊
Me In Ramadan or every Monday’s and Thursdays
Fasting is actually really good for you! Human bodies are adapted to last a long time without food and you can train your body to get used to these eating habits! Your body then learns to dip into ketosis in these times, helping you burn fat and keep focus. I personally like intermittent fasting and missing breakfast so I'm fasting for about 13 hours and since some of that is whilst I'm asleep its pretty easy to do (:
Felixs freckles Awh Ma’sha’allah! You do the sunnah fasts.
In’sha’allah I make fasting on Mondays and Thursdays part of my lifestyle too.
I clicked on this video wondering if the poor girl was ok
Confidential Luna X Same 😂
i find the worst part of this diet is that IU would still do dance practices and still do regular workouts. this diet plus her schedule is extremely unhealthy
Exactly! I was watching the video and thinking like IU still had her uptight schedule like how tf did she do this
Poor woman, must be hard on her!
She probably feels like absolute hell 24/7.
Astrocat777 many stimulants. There's a very good reason diet coke is so popular with people with anorexia. IU probably has easy access to better stimulants than caffeine as well.
she maybe doesn’t actually follow this ‘diet’ everyday? that’s my biggest guess bc there’s no way she would have the energy to dance and do basic things eating like this
I'm anorexic and this actually somehow made me go and grab something to eat wow wtf
@Eliza Jane Aitken Curran thank you sweetheart 💋
Best of luck to you with recovery!
honestly though.. like the small talk she had at the end really got to me for some reason, lol fuck
yeah i have anorexia as well, watching this video made my stomach hurt and i feel bad for iu 😔
🙏❤
Me: I'm starting my diet TODAY.
My mom: WERE GOING OUT TO A CHINESE BUFFET TODAY.
this exAct thing happened to me today omg
omg this always happens to me!! everytime i'm motivated, my parents comes home bringing some delicious snacksXDXD or sometimes they plan to go out for dinner at my favorite restaurants... :(( lol
Ahahaa
LMAO
At least the Chinese buffet was nice lmao

goal: to make an idol diet to lose weight
obstacle: all my family :v
lasnalgasdeyoongi OML YESSS especially with black family members 😭
Yeah. Living with a family who r always behind me i cant do them
same tho.My mom was anorexic so she keeps a close eye on use children 😂
Thank god for your parents monitoring you you all know it's dangerous and not worth it right?
I mean, if I didn’t want like one meal or something she’d make me eat loads :/
I'm not sure what's going on but I seriously thought "why doesn't the motorcycle sound British?" Maybe I hit my head too hard the other day.
LexiJean83 I thought it was her stomach grumbling lmao
No one:

@@youraveragepercussionist7690 lmaooo🤣
No, no, I thought the same...
I thought it was her stomach 😂😂
i love how in this video she was so excited to have 1K subs.... little did she know that in a few months she would have almost 150K
Hahahaha Im still as excited about every single sub ahhahaha
Then 211,327 subs
and in 5 more months 222k :)
2 years later she has 315k subs :)
Fatma Yrdr 325k now
That's not a diet that's starving yourself.
Fantascape yeah the iu had anorexia (oof apparently she had bulimia not anorexia my bad) so she would do this diet before a comeback
exactly what i was going to say
Fantascape you are so right like i feel so sorry for kpop idols i mean it's starving
That's how I lost weight....
Fantascape seriously
I have abs
A - A
B- Big
S- stomach
Momo Petro same though 😂😂
I have (fl)abs
Why is this me
😂
Omg I didnt realize I have so much likes
I used to have anorexia and ate about the same amount calorie wise during the worst of it, but way more balanced on the food category side of things. Once I started recovery, I used protein shakes to up the amount of calories I ate everyday and because it was easier to drink calories then to force myself to eat physical food. Watching this video has my brain screaming to do this again, but I know the consequences.
I went through treatment 5 years ago for anorexia of which I had been suffering from for over 5 years at the time of starting treatment and it has only been recently (the past 1 year) where my weight has stabilized more. Before the stabilization, eating a normal healthy diet during recovery just made me keep gaining weight because it took a long time for my body to realize that I was not going to starve it anymore. My nutritionist had said that this was normal and I had to stick with healthy eating even when I saw the weight gain into the overweight category until I recovered my body's functions. It is so hard to stick in recovery when you just see your body get bigger and bigger. It took 3.5 years of recovery before I started to see my weight go back down and only the past year has it been a "healthy" weight (as in not overweight, though I am still on the slightly larger side).
These types of diets f*ck up your body's normal processes, especially when it isn't even well balanced (as even well balanced at this much for deficit screws over your health). It is true that you might see results while doing them, but the long term physical consequences are dire. You cannot live your entire life eating this little unless you want to have a short life. Please change your lifestyle to eat healthier, more balanced meals at a healthy caloric range and moderate excersice rather than go to these extremes.
I’m so proud of you, your so strong to be able to get through this and share this with everyone. And I totally agree, this diets are terrible for you and shouldn’t rlly exist to be honest
wow i’m actually amazed by your story. thank you so much for sharing, it super inspiring and it actually made me stop and think about what i was considering doing to my body. thank you so much. you’re amazing, hope your still healthy and i wish you lots of love and happiness!

This is insane. Seeing how tired and depressed you were honestly scared me and IU, Jimin and all other idols on crazy diets exercise and dance and sing like this AND don’t even mention their pains. There really needs to be more awareness and help available for them.
Thank you so much for such an honest look
Right? I was thinking that the whole time. They have these insane diets -- then they have to do interviews, performances, practices and are travelling constantly and living on almost zero sleep, and yet still have to remain chipper. I would lose my goddamn mind.
Honestly it just shows what's wrong with the media that they're forcing these people to do this or they are essentially fired. Then you have all these easily influenced people watching these idols and wanting to be like them. So they adopt this unhealthy lifestyle as well. It's saddening and extremely worrisome.
This is also a diet that a lot of dancers follow. It's not that new, ballerinas typically eat 800 calories a day in some cases.
Ik for fact that jimin was having bad body image and ppl were calling him fat and the fact that these kpop idols are going throught these dumb diets it makes me upset
don't get me wrong, it's just my idea but could it be that they have energy by taking drugs (e.g. cocain) Remember those models from 90s?

lol yeah. Probably Bc I haven’t eaten in... 20 hrs. (Don’t worry I’m not starving myself, I’ve just been sleeping)
No wonder K-POP idols are always passing out they have this diet and are working all the time .
Zee T Ikr and it really worries me:\
Zee T and they only get 4 hours of sleep a day
They go to bed at 2-3am and wake up by 5! They dont get rem sleep its sooo bad.
Alicia's Bipolar Meds Ikr😭😭but it's part of their job(I wish their company/manager fixes their schedule)
Svt Bts/ARMY carat Im sorry that I disliked and agree I get worried
And the fact that KPOP idols are expected to be happy, cheerful, energetic, able to dance, move, sing, interview, perform, etc. this is insane. I'm glad you're okay now. Please don't do it again though.
This post. THIS ONE, you honestly put the concept into words. It just goes to show how competitive and ruthless the KPop industry can be. But I'm just so glad the idols who I heard took the diet are no longer doing so, such as Jimin, IU, and various others.
Sometimes their bodies can’t even do those things and they pass out live
I love how honest she was about how it’s sucked, also remember she didn’t even stick strictly to the frickin diet
Yeah for real she ate porridge :P
It’s called a cheat meal, and actually helps you not die during a diet essentially starving yourself.
@@vivianchen8607 the fact that Cheat meal is is term and needs to exist at all is just...
I don't know how to describe it.
@@hannahtucker115 right- like something shouldn’t be a “cheat meal” it’s so sad what the dieting industry has done to us. Food isn’t bad, and you aren’t being “bad” for eating :(( although I have an eating disorder, I know more about what a healthy relationship with food should be than everyone around me.. which is sad.

Same here.
Her first video on this channel is literally about her battle with anorexia. Don't compare your body to that of others, please just eat healthy and go outside regularly and you will be okay, I promise.
Same * grabs potato chips * I don’t know why I can’t lose weight it’s so unfair
That diet was misinterpreted in English Jimin explained that he actually didn't eat a full meal in ten days (which isn't any better) he just lessoned his intake, he basically just snacked for ten days.
Exactly my thoughts. He said he ate just one "proper meal" in ten days. Smh. 😭
Poor baby 😭😭
Thank you
and that seems ok to you all? to not eating a full meal in ten days but to only snack?
that's crazy and that's a road straight to death
Ohhhhhhhhh oki

@@sabahm9269 what makes you say that? most people commenting obviously have an eating disorder.
EDIT: i was definitely exaggerating & projecting. clearly simply forgetting to have breakfast doesnt equal having an actual eating disorder.

Diets don’t work but changes in lifestyle do.
indeed
diets can work, everyones different.
dead inside diets can work!😂
To lose weight you must CHANGE your diet and lifestyle. Not just one or the other.
YAAASSSSSS
This explains why so many kpop idols collapse on stage.
Kayla Gaines there are idols who don’t do diets as crazy as this they still eat enough food but the main reason why they collapse on stage is because they perform vigorous activities they practice the whole day and even though they still get enough food for energy, that’s not always enough. they lose sleep because of their schedules and such. so the thing to look out for is the amount of activities they undergo because food cannot solve other problems that the body needs such as sleep.
+박주연 (bwuhaJO) true
Kayla Gaines I just saw Shane’s video:) watch it if you haven’t
Yeah they are overworked and under fed
Thank you for speaking out; as a nurse, I applaud you. As a young woman within our society, I applaud you. This is an extreme diet - it is in NO way sustainable, and it is in no way healthy and adequate to meet your body’s vital mineral and vitamin daily intake.
She’s giving awareness on what’s healthy and what isn’t. This topic needs to be shared and talked about...good for her!
LittleGrey242 I have loads of fat too cling into while I do this diet
@Crissy Knoxbest
Ellbat:
- I'm so tired
- I'm so hungry
- This is so unhealthy
- My mood is sinking
- I feel unwell
- I'm unproductive
- I normally eat oatmeal with banana and stevia for breakfast and snack a lot throughout the day
- No one feels great when they're eating this much
- It's horrible
- This is so restrictive
- Diets like this are not long term solutions
- You need to look at nutrition and not be restricting
- You'll be miserable
- I'm so hungry
- I'm struggling
- I can't sustain myself on this diet
- I'm so happy that this bloody diet is over and I can eat and function like a normal human being
- I felt ill and didn't feel strong, I hated it
- It's not good for you
- Do not go on a diet, make healthier choices
Crissy: "She's encouraging people to go on this diet and not proving any points!!!"
As a nurse, I reach the end of my 12 hr shift and realize all I’ve had the entire day is maybe a cup of coffee or 2, if I’m lucky a bag of chips and water. And then get home and eat an entire daily calorie intake in one meal 🤔🤔🤔
Vitamins _are_ minerals... It's literally short for "vital minerals."
If she has no energy imagine how IU feels she has to dance and exercise everyday stay strong both of you 💪👊

He said he ate one meal for 10 days meaning one meal every day for 10 days o > O
IU has admitted to suffering from bulimia :(
J Luc IU said that she only goes on this diet a week before photoshoots. She never does it for a long time
Ive had one meal a day for a month and i lost so much weight but the key to that is not doing anything. I was depressive and so i only ate once a day when im extremely hungry. I eat at night and sleep throughout the day. There is no way i couldve survived if i had done anything active during the day 😂
+Eyna Ariffin that's actually my life not even a diet i eat at night sleep for a whole day I don't even get out of bed i just eat one meal sometimes i just eat grapes or eat diet cereal and watch RUclips or dramas or WEBTOONs and go back to sleep I'm not so miserable since I do this every day I'm not so hungry anymore and I used to eat out of boredom can you believe that and I still weigh 50+ but it's because I have thick huge heavy bones i just have calories in my thighs and legs 🙂💔 sorry too long i know just wanted to spill it out 😅😭🔥

You are what you eat
I wouldn't call this a diet, it's starvation.
Exactly.
Fasting isn't starvation
chicagobullsfan03 that's not fasting
Fasting is literally starvation. Are you kidding??
Fasting is controlled starvation where you have the choice to stop the process at any time. Not the same thing. Another thing, Ellbat is obviously tall, whereas IU is small and Asian. IU doesn't need 2000 calories a day, and neither do many people- though 300 calories a day is extreme and shouldn't be a long term thing. There are people who were obese who went with less food- a water fast, that is no calories just water, for a prolonged period of time- they were irritable and weak but they were able to lose alot of weight that would be impossible to burn off via excercise alone, and from there they could transition into healthy eating for the rest of their life. Ellbat doesn't need either the IU diet or the water fast she was already at a healthy weight. The guy who did the water fast also noted that the first 4 days took the most willpower and made him the most irritable and weak, so if Ellbat was obese and did the IU diet to lose weight fast she would've quit far too soon.

I love the thing you said about not going on a diet, but changing your diet! That was a good bit.
I’ve watched a bunch of these IU diet videos and I really hope it gets the attention of the media in Korea. What those poor pop stars go through is unimaginable.
Anyway, I subbed! Can’t wait to see you in my notifications!
This made my day, thank you so much ❤️
And don't forget that these stars still have to train while on these diets.
Agreed! And what really baffles me is that, is there a lack of trainors & diet experts in Korea for them to resort into starvation like this to lose weight?! Have they never heard of eating extremely clean/ healthy where you have to eat every 2-3 hours with very healthy foods, while gaining just muscles & burning away fats at the same time?!
Like, eating tons of unpleasant healthy foods every 2-3 hours is A MUCH BETTER choice (even though it's hard to do especially if you're not used to eating a lot) compared to starving yourself! At least you feel strong & alive. And it's also perfect for their rigurous physical activities such as dancing & performing. They don't even need to workout if they're on this healthy diet!

As someone recovering from severe anorexia nervosa I really like what you said about not "going on a diet," but instead, changing your diet and staying intuitive in your eating etc. Love your message and your personality. I hope the toxicity and pressures for k-idols can be lessened in the coming years.
Bruh.. I’m honestly concerned for how BTS Jimin felt when he didn’t even eat a real meal in 10 days.. #FeedJimin 😢
That was a long time ago I'm sure he's better now. But he still seems insecure about weight. 😔

You grew from 1000 to almost 40,000 in just two months omg!! That's amazing keep it up!
Tee Jay ??
she gained a little more that 12,000 in 2 weeks
Your new role model That’s wild stuff
If she had 1,000 when posting this, she's gained 52,600 since then. In roughly 2 months? damn!
my ed thinks this is normal
same dkdkdkdk
Lmfao SAME
I don’t really have an ed, but this diet seems normal to me too. A little restrictive, but it seems healthy.
Rainbow Cooky It’s really not healthy!!
sameeeee
normal people: OMG! i can’t even imagine going on this diet! are they crazy!?
anorexics: first time? *sips green tea*
EDIT: Editing this comment after 3 years of constant replies.
I'm now in recovery and I wish the best to anyone suffering from an eating disorder; there's so much more to life than numbers and comparing yourself to others. If you can right now, please try to look for reasons to recover. I was told I wouldn't make it past the age of 25 if I kept going because of heart failure... It really isn't worth seeing the numbers on the scale go down or seeing your bones a little more. My days are numbered and I regret doing everything I did to my body. If I could, I'd recover much earlier. Thanks for reading if you got this far. :')

That's about how many calories I ate when I was severely anorexic and 60 lbs. And it doesn't only take away the fat, you loose all your muscle, it destroys your gut, your bones, heart etc - not to talk about the mental part of starving. STAY HEALTHY girls! You don't have to be perfect, be yourself and take care of you! ❤
Juicy Pear maybe create a timetable or set reminders for lunch, snacks etc. So you don’t forget a meal.
Jenny L my aunt has anorexia she’s 19 years old and she moves like a slug and sleeps all day and the only thing I’ve seen her eat is her vitamin powder drink :(
Jenny L When I was anorexic I didn’t eat for several days in a row and when I ate I ate one banana a day.Also still did gymnastics for five hours every day
I was only 10
Just wanna add in that boys struggle with their weight as well they’re just a lot more silent about it ♡ if you’re a boy, please don’t feel isolated. Keep healthy and take care of yourself as best as you can.
Brooke Festa Thank you
I’m not good with diets. Never keep to them. Congrats on reaching 1k
MummyandMunchkin Me neither 😂 Thank you!! X
That's because diets don't work. Honestly you are always on a diet. All a diet is is what you eat. What this is is food restrictions.
What most people should do if they want to actually change their bodies and weight, is a LIFESTYLE CHANGE. Not "dieting", starvation, fasting, restrictive diets, calorie deficits, etc etc. Its okay for small periods of time but extreme caloric restrictions can cause IRREPARABLE DAMAGE. Change your lifestyle if you want long term success. 🙂 Good luck on your journey
More like congrats on 10k
HELL0NESSA basically eat healthy foods and exorcise. If you eat healthy and follow the food guide for recomended amounts then whatever your body settles at is likely normal for you. Its what i tend to do because my adhd medication has a side effect appitite suppression so i dont tend to feel hungry until im REALLY hungry... its an issue cus im already a small person tho. So i really don't need to lose any weight and id rather not...
I think I would last at least 5 days because I am not a confident person in terms of weight and shape and I don't eat a lot anyways
I adore that while filming this video you were so excited to get your 1000th subscriber, not knowing that 3 months after posting it, it would have 2.3 million views, and you'd have 62,000+ more subscribers. That's so great.
Also your timestamps are wrong. At least post-diet measurements is. That's at 20:42
Awwww thank you! 🖤 Ah!! I’ll change it not thanks a lot 😊❤️
Only up from here, pretty girl!
My whole family: literally calls me fat 24/7
Also them: buys literally SO MUCH junk food and tell me nOt tO eAt eAt iT
This sounds psychologically unhealthy, have you considered moving out?
Sonja Taylor i’m 14:/ i have no where else to go:(
😥
Your family loves you but that doesn’t mean they aren’t jerks!
my family is the same 😭 and then when I tell them I want to buy healthy foods they laugh and tell me that I sound dumb so sometimes I just end up starving myself but I also binge bc I start hating myself it’s a unhealthy cycle that I unfortunately can’t break
"free world, you do you boo" she has really good morals
I’m showing this to my mum just so she knows she raised me good 😂
She got me there at the "why?" aren't you a subscriber... only youtuber who actually got me to subscribe on the second video xD
Bæ 😂
Me too🤣
OMG SAME. i was like "y'know. you got a point." and i subscribed XD - 'cept this is my first video of hers
they're basically starving themselves...this is terrible ;-;
Oana Cristina they basically have 2 my friend who is obsessed with K-pop told me that the girls and maybe even guy’s but the girls have to be 90 pounds at least and can’t be over 90 pounds or they get “fired”
Jordan Graybill woaah, this is so harsh. 😩
I used to weigh 80 pounds it’s horrible .-. Every time u fall u feel like u broke something and ppl always asked how I was that skinny I had problems gaining weight when I was younger
Jordan Graybill they can’t get fired, they have 9 year contracts, but they get smaller portions and have to train more to lose weight, a lot of companies are fucked.
Me: *tries to diet*
My family: orders my favorite pizza the same day
Righttt like yesterday I was motivated then they bring home pizza. I ate but like 🙄🖐🏻
I love your entire approach to this video. You are very honest and it’s clear you’ve done your research. I also admire what you said about weight and it not being a dependable factor because of bone density muscle and height etc. keep it up!
Dude this is from earlier this year and you went from 1000 to 135,000. That's amazing
me: wow this is so unhealthy! everybody should eat a balanced diet!
also me: *hasn't eaten in over 2 days, considers ice water a meal replacement*
please take care of yourself
Okay same lmao, but please make sure you eat something! :)
nah, iced tea, green or hot water with lemon is far more effective than ice water. That shits nasty
I drink 4 cups of green tea a day and my only solid food is usually a banana, yet I advocate for body positivity. I’m a hypocrite too 😂
Same, but for me I am so full after an apple for breakfast.
I'll be honest, I have had this video pop up in my recommend for a year and a half, maybe even 2 years now, and I have not dared watch it because I have been so worried about how it would impact me. But after watching your other videos these past two months, I came to the conclusion that I trust you and I'm gonna watch the video
YES OMG
IU’s diet is what I like to call this thing, it’s um, called this thing, it’s
A N O R E X I A
I like your name
Fer Bach thank
Yeah I like to call it that thing as well bro
I mean anorexia is a disorder, it’s all about how someone feels and how they see themselves but I get your point
Lol
Lol it's kinda funny watching her talk about her little 1,000 subscribers and geeking out but a few months later she's about to hit 100,000 lol
IM FREAKING OUT OK
She’s 125K now 😂
*before I knew what the diet was:* wow maybe I could try this! Might be fun!
*after I knew what it was:*

Ellbat Honestly, I’ve been really thinking about trying the diet. 🙃💕
Taylor Marie As a challenge or as a genuine way to lose weight? X
Ellbat At first when I first started watching these types of videos, it was to lose weight, but now that I’ve been informed about the dangers. Probably just a challenge. Xx
Taylor Marie I’m really glad you’re looking for much healthier ways to improve your health! I hope my video helped you see that this diet is not ideal. This challenge is fine for a couple of days but it’s much better to look after yourself and make lifestyle choices that will better you in the long run!! ❤️
Ellbat Thank you so much! ❤️
As someone who was anorexic for a little over 3 years, this is just no joke.
Especially what you were saying about "starvation mode" and coming back after it.
It's been almost 5 years since I've recovered and I still have some excess weight that I gained (on top of the weight I lost) after I started eating regularly again.
People also underestimate the lifelong effects. My kidneys almost shut down last year because they have trouble metabolizing some things. I have chronic migraines now because of how long I denied my body the nutrients it needed. I also have weak knees and ankles because of permanent bone and tendon damage, I accidentally hyper extend my knees *at least* once a week without effort, it could happen just from getting out of bed.
I was watching a documentary the other day on the stigma of weight in S.Korea and I remember something along the lines of "Most businesses wont offer interviews to women who weigh more then 50kg" and that's just heartbreaking. That statement included jobs like cashiering at a drug store or just sitting behind a desk.
I really wish more people would see the harm in releasing diets as harmful as this one. There will be helpful people like you, of course, who show how dangerous it is. But there will more often be vulnerable young girls and boys who use it as a lifeline to lose weight.
Yeah I completely agree with you. It’s honestly so upsetting that anyone is pressured into dieting this extreme, especially due to the fact that it’s just the societal standard. I also wish idols didn’t talk about their restrictive diets so that young impressionable people can’t copy them.
I think the only way to tackle diets like these is to counter-balance them with videos about how negative they are and why a balanced lifestyle is more important.
On a side note: I’m so glad you’ve recovered and you’re healthier now. I hope the remaining side effects pass quickly. I also wish you lots of happiness ❤️
Lori Pena yes, those with fame have a kind of responsibility to the public, especially the youth who idealize them, to encourage an overall healthy lifestyle. There are very pressionable individuals who will imitate those they admire; looking up to them, this obsession in many cultures with the apperance of someone is only perpetuated even more, cementing the idea that one's value is derived from external/superficial factors. 😔
I was forced into a starving diet for years bc of my mom's stigma of me being fat even while being pregnant and post birth and until i moved out. I dropped down to 112lb at 5'6ft. Luckily I'm petite frame so it didn't look like i was ill when finishing school or i would have lost my son. But now I've gone through the same kidney and bone problems with spinal and hips cramping. Finally got a prescription for pt and a chiropractor because my core is so gone i have to hold myself up if im not cross legged.
Lori Pena i’m glad you’ve recovered and even though me apologizing won’t do anything, i’m sorry that you have to go through things now and had too back then. as someone who’s wanted to starve themselves and still wants to just drink water and eat small amounts, the side effects do scare me if i were to ever starve myself. i don’t plan on ever doing it of course, but it’s a sad reality that people think about it, do it, and want to. it sucks we hurt ourselves so much.
Don’t try this ay she was already so tiny and it doesn’t work for everyone
Honestly you can see how her face looses color and under her eyes you can see how it gets dark and reddish kinda.. nonetheless she still looked good like whatttt 😭❤️ such beautiful eyes and big lashes as well!! ❤️
*_Does IU Diet_*
*_Turns into pencil_*
Edit THX SO MUCH FOR THE HEART I LOVE UR CHANNEL!!
😂😂😂😂
:)))))))))
😂😂😂
Dun wanna have a flat bootey
IS THAT GAMBLING SCHOOL? 😭😭
Guys remember these K-pop stars not only do this diet, they are dancing like mad and exercising all day. They probably faint and are sick af behind closed doors but we have no idea. It’s just the sad reality.
"I feel ill, very ill."
*laughs in fasting*
exactly
suki yeh but you regain your energy at iftari time, and then you eat again at suhoor.
fasting is different lol
fasting is healthy, this isn't
400 calories is not even enough to function and be alive long term. A few days won't do much harm but after a while your organs will start shutting down and your body will stop functioning without proper nutrition. Its absolutely insane seeing it and knowing people actually eat like this. It's also sad knowing that thousands of boys and girls could go on this "diet" because they see an idol doing it.
HannahOfferdahl a lot of people kinda also have actual eating disorders, bad upbringings with nutrition and no role model for true healthful dietary needs, theres also so much discussion over multiple things, multiple opinions to confuse, that makes it even harder to find a "safe" way to eat. People get scared and develop paranoia, other things like that. There's multiple reasons behind why people do such things besides just looks or this or that.
Water has no calories, there is no way you would be able to survive with just water, I mean the very thought is illogical. In fact, I'd give a person two months tops on water. Your body is going to essentially eat itself.
@Rose Isabelle Beauty your brain consumes 75% of your caloric intake and without those calories it cannot function.
Rimu N your body actually can survive on water. Many people do what’s a called a water fast where they take in nothing but for water for whatever amount of time they decide. It’s not necessarily for everyone, but it’s supposed to actually have many benefits. And the “eating yourself” is kinda true, but not in the terrible way you’d think. After a certain amount of time of not taking in any food your body goes into what’s called ketosis which means you’re burning pure body fat for energy and if someone has extra body fat or is “overweight” per say, burning that extra isn’t necessarily a negative thing.
@Rose Isabelle Beauty without food you'd die within 10 days. Please read some science and no offense common sense. I really hope you do eat because your comment made me slightly worried about you, not to be offensive at all but it's really important people actually understand how important food really is. If you could truely live on water you wouldn't be able to die of starvation hence the common sense comment.
0:02. Lmao I subscribed you really scared me there.
Same aha
Same 😂
Lil'Bacon IsTheBestFrickinRapperEver. ME 2 LOL HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
same. I was like "good question. why?" and then i subscribed.
Hi5
400 kcal is literally only my breakfast lol
Same 😂😂😂
For me, not even 😅
That's kind of normal. It would be like 1/5 of the average daily recommended intake.
I often go below this though. Especially when it is hot. Because i then just have no hunger at all. And i eat an apple for like lunch, because i feel like i HAVE to eat something, logically not hunger wise.
It would pre breakfast for me 😆
alexandra gonzalez i call what i eat first my breakfast.
Like in Poland. If i eat twice, i just call it a "second breakfast"
The fact her channel was so small at this time omg
So happy to see how your channel grew because of this one video, I support you girl
Aw, thank you so much! You’re so sweet for watching me!! You’ve made my day ahha ❤️
Aren't you the queen of 9 yr olds ? Love you tho..
I love the overall message and the way you strongly discouraged this and still kept it light and nice, you know this makes me think about seeing those stretch mark ads. Especially because Koreans think stretch marks are such a flaw. I hate seeing those ads I dont care about getting rid of my stretch marks. Whats the point? They're already here and you should focus more on the fact that the flaws on your body literally aren't flaws they are you. You are what you consider your flaws and you shouldnt feel gross just because society has conditioned you to feel that way. This was not a diet this was straight up a road to anorexia.
Alyssa Workman I actually kinda like my stretch marks. You’re so right! They’re just me.
Scars and stretchmarks are attractive to meeee
Weird fact: she had a eating disorder. I think it was bulimia.
As a matter of fact regarding stretch marks: A mother once said that her child thought they were beautiful like silver waves and when she would be able to get the same. ADORABLE imho! So: Love yourself and stay healthy is all that matters.
i love this comment thanks for saying this. i'm 100% korean and my mom was raised in korea and she believes that stretch marks are ugly. i get judged for my stretch marks on my thighs and told that they are ugly and that i need to lose fat because my mom believes that bc i have got the stretch marks from becoming more thick in the thigh region. but i love my body and i was very happy when i read your comment so thank you once again 💕 :)
"If you're not subscribed... Why?" I actually laughed out loud at that. New subscriber. Also: if you want to know muscle mass, bone density etc, most chemists in the UK have a scale and you can make an appointment for a weight related checkup
Thank you so much!!!! That’s awesome, thanks for letting the people know! 🖤
Girl i’m telling you I tried this diet for 2 months and I almost died 😃 I lost my appetite for food, started hating eating, started eating less, much lesser than i usually eat and I started to have fever, cough and cold (i thought it was covid but I tested negative). When I was ill that’s the only time I stoped and it was so hard to get back to my normal self but once I stoped it I became healthier and my fever, cough and cold was gone. I lost 10 kg or more in those two months while exercising 2 hours a day and dancing 3 hours a day. I felt so weak but I pushed myself to my limits until I was already dying. I guess the toxicity of this society just got in me 🙁 but to anyone reading this there are plenty of ways to go on a diet. Take it slow and don’t believe in what others are saying about you and your body. You’re perfect just the way you are! I believe in you and you should too 😊
