#4: Twice / Momo – Definitely NOT Recommended
Among the members of TWICE, Jihyo and Momo have gone through body transformation over the years.
And there was a tough journey that Momo had to go through to be part of TWICE.

When Momo was a trainee, she starved herself by not eating anything for the whole week before the audition, and did gym workout every day.
She only ate a cube of ice for the whole week.
This is a very dangerous way of losing weight and definitely not recommended.
Indeed, strictly speaking, this is not even a “diet plan”.
But still, there was netizen who tried the TWICE’ Momo diet for 5 days and… watch this:
