Eat This Before Tteokbokki: A Diet-Friendly Tip from Yujin!
Have you seen Yujin's recent video?
Even while managing her diet due to drama filming, she went to eat tteokbokki after a long time.
Yujin said it had been a whopping 4-5 months since she last had tteokbokki...
And it turns out, there's a reason why she doesn't gain weight even after eating tteokbokki!
So, today, I'm here to share some great tips for when you crave tteokbokki while dieting!
Eat these '6 things' before eating tteokbokki.
The reason why Yujin doesn't gain weight even when eating tteokbokki during her diet is...
...<Eggs>!
Yujin ordered and ate six boiled eggs before eating tteokbokki!
I just thought, 'Oh, she's getting her protein~,' but it turned out to be a key point for dieting.
Why eat eggs first?
Eating egg protein before eating carbohydrate-rich foods like tteokbokki prevents a rapid rise in blood sugar and keeps you feeling full for longer.
As Yujin said, it's true that "eggs are the only protein, so it reduces guilt"!
The amount of eggs Yujin actually ate with tteokbokki... wow.
Eggs are high in protein and low in carbohydrates, so they were the only way to get a feeling of fullness and protein when eating tteokbokki.
Plus, eating six eggs before eating tteokbokki slows down digestion, naturally reducing the amount you eat.
Good combinations to eat together:
In addition, if you're eating tteokbokki while dieting, adding cabbage, fish cakes, broccoli, or mushrooms provides a high-fiber + protein combination.
You'll feel full for longer, and the calories will be much lighter!
Of course, the soup...
...is a calorie bomb because of the sugar, starch syrup, and red pepper paste, so dip sparingly!
These days, there are many konjac rice cakes and tofu rice cakes, so if you switch to those, you can get even lower calories.
In the end, the point is 'order and balance'.
Eating in the order of eggs → vegetables → tteokbokki increases fullness and reduces the risk of overeating!
Remember to eat eggs first like Yujin, so you can enjoy tteokbokki even while dieting!
