Comedian Hoang Map used to be proud of his weight of 150 kg and chubby body. He said: his oversized appearance gives him a cute stage name, loved by the audience and a favorable opportunity to make money. "In the past, many people advised me to lose weight, but I ignored it because I didn't see the need. My big and fat body makes me easy to identify and love," Hoang Map shared.

However, being overweight also brings many difficulties in daily life. "Every time I sit down, someone has to pull me to get up. In Vietnam, 5XL items are almost non-existent, I often have to ask friends to order them from the US," he said.

Hoang Map's turning point appeared when he went to a general examination and received health results "at the red alert level". High blood glucose indexes, diabetes risk, heart valve regurgitation, shortness of breath, gout, varicose veins, unstable blood pressure, and blood lipids exceeding the threshold make doctors require immediate treatment. Initially, he used Western medicine to control his body index, but he was worried about side effects while taking it.

Luckily, Hoang Map met Dr. Huynh Ngoc Hung in Hanoi, who advised him to apply scientific weight loss methods, combine diet and exercise properly. Thanks to perseverance for nearly a year, Hoang Map successfully lost 52 kg, his body weight fell below 100 kg for the first time. "The indicators are all about the safety threshold, the body is healthy. I used to be sluggish and heavy, now I don't feel tired walking or climbing stairs. When I went to Sa Pa, I climbed 600 steps up the mountain without a cable car, surprising my friends," he said excitedly.

The image of Hoang Map neat and healthy when he went to Khanh Hoa to shoot a new movie in August surprised many people. The actor confided: after losing weight, many viewers did not recognize him immediately. "A resident said: 'I thought there was Hoang Map acting in this movie but I couldn't see it'. I had to introduce it to realize. When I went to Hanoi to receive a master's degree, my teachers were also surprised because I didn't see each other for a year, I changed completely," Hoang Map shared.

Dr. Huynh Ngoc Hung said: "It is not easy for a person with a long-term high weight to suddenly change his lifestyle. Hoang Map has made efforts to step out of the safe zone, persistently achieving the goal. Thanks to losing more than 50 kg, he has a new look, is more confident, and his health has improved markedly: reduced cardiovascular pressure, stabilized blood sugar, lowered blood fat, reduced risk of stroke, osteoarthritis and slept better."

Hoang Map's weight loss journey is indispensable without the companionship of his wife and two children. He revealed: "My wife voluntarily works as a chef, supervising each of my meals. My family eats healthy and loses weight with me. Now it's easy to go to the market to buy clothes, you don't need to ask someone to send them from the US." Currently, Hoang Map weighs 99 kg and is still aiming for the goal of 90 kg.

The actor maintains a healthy diet with plenty of green vegetables, limiting foods rich in bad fats, starch and sugar. He combines training and walking every day. Hoang Map shared: "I am over 50 years old, about to enter the U60. To be healthy, live happily with my family for a long time and devote myself to art, I have to take care of my health and appearance. Which dish I like but am not healthy, I still eat it but in small amounts. I prioritize low-calorie, nutrient-dense foods. Looking back at the photos when I was fat, I find it hard to believe that I used to be so fat."
