Searching for the missing collarbone: Hye-yeon's upper body sculpting project and her battle of willpower.

Her upper body was quite plump, but her legs were incredibly thin, making her proportions unbalanced. When Hye-yeon stood in front of me, I immediately tucked in my stomach and brought my casually placed legs together. She possessed incredibly beautiful legs and exuded a captivating aura. Then, she began to introduce herself in a voice as beautiful as her legs. "I'm Jung Hye-yeon, a nail technician, and I just turned 30 this year. Turning 30 is a new beginning, and I hope to have a fresh start in life. Aside from my family, I don't think I've ever truly loved anyone. I want to experience a real, romantic relationship." Hye-yeon is actually quite feminine. She's 167 cm tall and weighs 80 kg. While slightly overweight by average standards, she's remarkably slender and enviable among "slim girls." Other challengers asked her, "Why are you trying to lose weight, Ms. Hye-yeon? If it were me, I probably wouldn't..." "It looks just right this way. If my figure were like this, I wouldn't have to worry." Before, when I heard a girl weighing 80 kg wanting to lose weight, I thought she was crazy. Now, however, I completely understand Hye-yeon's desire to lose weight. Hye-yeon's problem is "upper body obesity," which makes her figure very disproportionate. Therefore, I specifically provided her with methods for "sculpting the upper body." Because she worked very hard, she achieved remarkable results and changes in her first month's midterm exam, surprising everyone. I've spoken with Hye-yeon privately several times, and she said she was certain she could do it because she had complete faith in herself, in Mi-jin, in the doctor, in the coach, and in her parents, as well as in her boyfriend who promised to support her while she ate instant noodles. That's why she performed so well. Let's try to believe in ourselves, believe in myself, and believe in those who help us with love! When we give our complete trust, the other person will reciprocate. Let's all cheer each other on! Although I really want to lose weight, I always find myself overeating. I stumbled upon Kwon Mi-jin's Weibo and was immediately drawn to her, becoming a loyal fan. I also want to be beautiful and slim like Kwon Mi-jin. Every day, I watched Quan Meizhen's transformation with envy; yet, I was always snacking and indulging. My own cowardly state filled me with regret and anger; I was such a fool, only concerned with being sad and envious of others, wishing someone could lend me a hand and help me escape this dreadful fat ring. Then, I saw the announcement recruiting a second "slimming girl," which, like a huge and powerful ray of light, gave me hope. So, I began to diligently prepare my application materials. Waiting for the first round of qualified applicants felt like an endless night; but I was also incredibly excited, feeling that luck was about to smile upon me. During the open selection interview, I was second to last, and the wait was long. Because of this, I heard about the motivations and determination of the other challengers. I shared similar struggles, which is why I came with such a resolute determination. Therefore, I understood their feelings deeply and empathized with them. Listening to their stories of struggling with weight loss, I even silently shed tears. Because I completely understood their feelings and pain, in that instant, my determination to become a "slim girl" was strengthened! With willpower, I knew I could succeed in losing weight. When the results were announced and my name was called, I didn't react; my hands trembled uncontrollably. I had been chosen! While I was overjoyed, the disappointed expressions of the other challengers prevented me from cheering loudly. Instead, I secretly vowed, "I will work hard alongside you all. This is a precious opportunity given to me by God, and I must succeed in losing weight!" The day I eagerly awaited as a "slim girl" finally arrived. At the first training session, Coach Ahn Jin-pil said, "Helping people suffering from obesity to lose weight healthily, regain their confidence, and have a second life is my mission as a teacher." Furthermore, at the first hospital consultation, Director Cho Sung-kyun said, "I will lose weight with you, and during the program, I will give it my all, sincerely understand and encourage you." I fully felt the expectations and sincerity of Coach Ahn Jin-pil and Director Cho Sung-kyun, which also made me trust the teachers. They worked hard for me, and I was determined to lose weight healthily and beautifully to repay them. During the first month of my weight loss journey, the restricted diet was my biggest obstacle. I used to eat high-sodium, high-sugar, and high-fat foods, so eating salt-free and oil-free diet meals was incredibly painful. The exercise program, however, was a completely new learning experience for me, so I was excited and happy. From the second month onwards, the diet became even stricter, and the exercise intensity increased significantly. Because my muscle mass was below average and my strength was insufficient, I found strength training extremely difficult and painful. But the longer it was like this, the more I wanted to overcome it. If my fellow participants could do it, there was no reason I couldn't. I put in 200% effort, completing all the training while crying. In the third month, I did high-intensity training every day, but I felt much easier than the previous month because my muscle mass was slowly increasing. Both the numerical tests and my actual physical sensations showed that my strength was gradually improving, and I was becoming more powerful. Friends who know I'm on a diet often ask me, "Isn't it tough?" My answer is always, "It's not just tough, it's incredibly painful." Enjoying delicious food and gaining weight happens in an instant, but losing weight requires 10 to 100 times more time and effort. Those who haven't tried to lose weight can't understand how difficult it is; but it's not impossible. With strong willpower, you can overcome obesity. The most unexpected reward is the praise and positive feedback I've received from friends, such as, "Share your diet plan with me!", "How many hours of exercise should you do?", "How did you lose weight?", "You've lost so much weight!", "I want to lose weight too!" Because of my weight loss, I've received more attention, and I'm happy to share my secrets to success.
