Choi Jung-won appeared as a guest on MBN 'Check Time Again', which aired on the 7th.
On this day, Choi Jung-won released a body profile photo he took with his son two years ago. Choi Jung-won showed off his abs that he couldn't believe were in his 50s, drawing admiration.
Choi Jung-won said, `I have maintained a slim body since I was young, but in my 50s, I started to gain weight and gained 8 or 9 kilograms because I couldn't move due to COVID-19 during the menopause. I thought I couldn't do it, so I went on a diet, but I liked eating so much that it didn't work out. "At that time, my son was preparing for a body profile before joining the military, and he asked me if I would lose weight and take it with him. I lost 9kg and took a body profile picture with 48kg in 3 months with a strong mind", he explained.
As for the secret to losing 9kg, Choi Jung-won said, `You have to quit carbohydrates to lose weight, but everything that tastes good is carbohydrates. I love bread, macaron, and tteokbokki so much. I think I gained weight after eating a lot of carbohydrates, but I've lost a lot of weight now" he said.

He "I thought I should lose weight because I was so sick. He is taking drugs for hyperlipidemia and high blood pressure and is also in the pre-diabetes stage. Also, the blood vessel age came out in the 70s. I was very surprised and cried a lot. The inflammation level was more than twice the normal level", he confessed.
Choi Jung-won, who said his whole body was a lump of inflammation before dieting, said "It was hard to get up in the morning and step on it. At first, I didn't think it was because of the weight that hurt, but because I got older. There's no place that doesn't hurt from head to toe. But it's because I ate too much carbohydrates."
