Huyen Lizzie reveals her weight loss regimen that reduced her size to XS for the role.

An impressive transformation for the new role.

In the film "One Millimeter Away From You," actress Phan Minh Huyền (Huyền Lizzie) is receiving much positive feedback from viewers for her role as Ngân. Not only is she impressive with her nuanced acting, but she is also praised for her elegant fashion sense and slender figure, perfectly suited to the image of a successful young woman.

To achieve a perfect on-screen appearance, Phan Minh Huyen revealed that she had to follow a strict weight-loss regimen. Despite already having a balanced figure, the actress decided to lose weight to better suit the "screen proportions" and the costumes of her characters.

A challenging weight loss journey.

According to her, Phan Minh Huyen proactively planned to lose weight before taking on the role. She went from size S to size XS, and her waist was even smaller than the XS measurements, requiring most of the costumes to be altered to fit.

This process was not easy. A month before filming began, she started changing her lifestyle habits, including going to bed earlier, eating healthier, and limiting carbohydrates. As filming approached, she adopted a completely carbohydrate-free diet to achieve a slimmer appearance on screen.

"Cutting carbohydrates is pure torture."

Eliminating carbohydrates from her diet was a major challenge for the actress. "Cutting out carbohydrates was pure torture. When you eat too few carbohydrates, your mind becomes forgetful and your memory suffers," she shared.

Phan Minh Huyen humorously recounted an anecdote: "One day I went out to eat with a friend. The meal was delicious, and there was a sticky rice dish that I particularly loved, but I didn't dare eat it. Looking at the plate of sticky rice made me crave it so much that I only dared to eat a few grains to remember the taste and ease my craving."

Effort pays off.

Despite having to go through a rigorous weight loss process, Phan Minh Huyen said she felt happy that her efforts were recognized by the audience. The compliments about her appearance being suitable for the character Ngan were a great motivation for her.

The actress affirmed that she always dedicates herself fully to each role, from researching the character's inner feelings to meticulously preparing visually. After the project ends, she plans to return to a normal diet to get her body back to its desired weight.
