South Korean broadcaster Park Ji-yoon has opened up about her recent struggles with stress-induced binge eating, including consuming beer, which she typically avoids. She revealed on her Instagram Stories that she is currently undertaking a "clean eating" diet as a form of repentance for her recent dietary habits.

Why am I not gaining weight? This week, I stress-ate and even drank beer, which I don't usually drink, and chewed on dried snacks before sleeping, so I gained weight and am currently on a repentance clean์‹.

โ€” Park Ji-yoonDescribing her recent eating habits and decision to diet.

Park shared a photo of her "repentance meal," which consisted of two fried eggs. This diet choice aligns with her previous advocacy for eggs as a highly effective food for weight loss. She has referred to eggs as a "natural Wegovy" or "egg-xar" due to their purported benefits.

Eggs are very effective for dieting. These days, eggs are called natural Wegovy or egg-xar.

โ€” Park Ji-yoonExplaining the benefits of eggs for dieting.

Previously, Park had shared tips on incorporating eggs into a diet, suggesting that eating one or two eggs with olive oil, salt, and pepper about 15 to 20 minutes before a meal could help suppress appetite. She explained that this pre-meal snack could trigger the secretion of appetite-suppressing hormones, thereby preventing overeating and serving as a sufficient meal replacement.

It is good to eat 1-2 eggs sprinkled with olive oil, salt, and pepper 15-20 minutes before a meal. If you eat after secreting appetite-suppressing hormones first, you can prevent overeating, and it is sufficient as a meal replacement.

โ€” Park Ji-yoonAdvising on how to consume eggs for dieting purposes.
