Kim Chiu reveals secret ‘MWF diet’ to keep trim


Young actress Kim Chiu revealed Monday her secret to keep her “model-like” body trim and fit, which has made her the envy of girls everywhere.

The female lead of the ABS-CBN primetime soap “Tayong Dalawa” said a combination of eating only healthy food and exercising helps her keep her weight at 50 pounds (roughly the weight of a young Labrador retriever).

“Ang diet ko is actually based on a diet book I found at National (bookstore),” she told Good Times Manila in an interview.

“It’s called the ‘MWF diet,’” the young actress, who is paired with young actor Gerald Anderson, said.

“Ibig sabihin, kumakain lang ako tuwing Monday, Wednesday and Friday.”

Chiu said: “For example, Monday ngayon, and according sa schedule ko, I will have to eat something today.” This morning, she said she took a bite of a French toast, which she spit out after 15 seconds.

“Twenty calories na yun,” she said.

For lunch, she said she dipped a spoon into a bowl of mushroom soup and licked the spoon. “That’s another 12 calories.” she explained. For dinner, Chiu said she plans to eat a French fry and a melon ball, amounting to 30 calories.

“Medyo mapaparami ata ako ng kain ngayon. Hahaha! Hindi na lang ako mag-didinner sa Wednesday,” she said.

For her exercise regimen, Chiu said she uses the treadmill and lifts two coffee mugs that serve as her dumbbells.

She said she used to jump rope but she had to stop after an incident in which she ended up flying in the air and got stuck in an acacia tree for three hours.
