Super Junior's Shindong revealed that his weight loss journey was largely inspired by his desire to become healthy. 

He appeared on the February 12th broadcast of MBC's 'Radio Star' as a special guest MC where he mentioned that doctors told him he would have to lose weight if he wanted to stay alive. He stated: "All my test results came back... The doctor said that if I didn't lose weight now I could die when I turned 40." 

Since then, Shindong has lost a whopping 31 kilograms (68 pounds) and says he still has more to go!

Sometimes the best weight loss motivation is when you have to choose between unhealthy food and your life... good for him for making the right decision before it was too late.
