Kpop diets: Chanmi (AOA)
AOA Chanmi
Chanmi started this diet because she wanted to look and feel healthy, not just be skinny. It’s a long-term diet (lifestyle change) that you can incorporate into your daily routine at least 4 times per week. Chanmi allows for one cheat day a week where you can eat anything you want so you don’t torture yourself.
Chanmi Stats
166 cm / 5 ft. 5 inches
47 kg / 103.6 lbs
She doesn’t specify what to have for breakfast and lunch, but following her dinner format, I would say divide each meal into 1/3 protein, 1/3 vegetables/fruits, and 1/3 whole grains/unrefined carbs.
Protein examples:
Whole grain/unrefined carbs examples:
Dinner: Chicken Breast with Vegetables (2 servings)
Heat the oil in the frying pan, then add the diced chicken breast. Once the chicken forms a white outer layer, add the vegetables. Cook until chicken is cooked all the way through, then serve with rice.
Snacks
See my Jimin (BTS) diet page for more low-calorie snack recommendations!
