OH MY GIRL's Mimi revealed the lifestyle habits that allow her to maintain her weight while enjoying bread to her heart's content. Rather than simply restricting specific foods, her method involves increasing physical activity and regulating meal times.

Mimi: How I Maintain My Weight Even While Eating Bread Like Crazy—'Before 6 PM'

In a video titled 'Revealing how to not gain weight even if you eat bread like crazy... Telling you Mimi's special secret' released on the YouTube channel VIVO TV on the 2nd, Mimi appeared as a "bread lover" and explained her eating habits and exercise routine.

When Song Eun-i and Kim Sook asked, "Do you still like bread these days?", Mimi replied, "I eat it like crazy." She named Kouign-amann and salt bread as her recent favorites and even introduced the bakeries and menus she frequently visits. She expressed her extraordinary affection for desserts, stating, "If I don't eat dessert, my personality gets bad."

Despite this, regarding the secret to maintaining her weight, she revealed, "It's because I exercise hard now." She explained that she does not usually eat late-night snacks, reduces her dinner portions, and mainly eats bread during the morning hours. Her method is to reduce intake starting from 3 PM and "not eat at all from 6 PM." When she even mentioned, "I eat ice cream as soon as I wake up in the morning," Song Eun-i and Kim Sook could not hide their surprise.

She does not rely on a single specific type of exercise. Mimi said she performs a combination of boxing, yoga, swimming, weight training, ballet, and running, and she tries to stay active to the point where she almost never lies down on her bed except when sleeping. She added that recently, she walks for about two hours at a light jogging pace and does about 10 minutes of yoga every day before going to sleep.

The way she continues to exercise consistently was not grand. Rather than aiming for high-intensity workouts from the start, she explained that it is important to first move the body with the mindset of "Let's just do it for 10 minutes." It is a method of lowering the barrier to entry for exercise to establish it as a habit.

However, Mimi's eating and exercise methods are not a weight management method that applies equally to everyone. This is because the required energy intake and amount of exercise can vary depending on an individual's activity level, health status, and eating habits. In particular, rather than accepting 'fasting after 6 PM' or the specific way of consuming certain foods as an absolute formula for weight loss, it should be viewed as a personal management method that Mimi practices to fit her own lifestyle pattern.

Since her debut as a rapper for OH MY GIRL, Mimi has built public recognition by breaking away from the typical idol image through her unique way of speaking, honest personality, and YouTube activities. In particular, through her personal channel, she has narrowed the gap between her stage activities and real life by showing travel, daily life, and mukbang without filter.

These remarks are also meaningful in that they reveal a lifestyle of trying to secure corresponding activity levels while enjoying favorite foods, rather than showing a perfectly controlled diet. Ultimately, what Mimi emphasized was not 'not eating bread,' but rather enjoying what she likes while moving in a sustainable way and managing her life rhythm.
