… Mei-Shun has grown around her waist. It occurs every year actually, since she has too much sweets, feasts and alcohol of great taste from the end of December to the middle of January. Now she started to reduce carbo, her favorite, in diet. It is the most feared to get weight back immediately, so good cooking to enjoy every necessary nutrient is the key.

Fat Please?
StandardMei-Shun has a sore throat these days. A slight cold it may be, yet seeing a doctor without reservation would exacerbate her condition in this season. Just take home medicine, gargle and sleep well. And sick body seems to crave more energy. She invited her mom-in-law to lunch on a mountain of Chinese fried rice and ice cream.
365th Step!
StandardIt seems one of great joys allowed only to grown-ups: we enjoyed chatting on Japanese sweets sent from Mei-Shun’s mother after dinner, late at night. Such a style of eating is awful for a good diet? Ah-ha. You are exactly right. Green tea could give damage to a sound sleep? Well, we know they say so. We would see anybody who could be good to us as Jessie, Ariana and Nicki do.
Hard or Soft
StandardWhich fruits do you prefer? Mei-Shun does the former while Shin the latter for persimmon, apple, banana, etc. They are all good for morning salad, adding cucumber in one-bite cut. Hot tea, milk and this would make your day energetic.

StandardSo is a sigh of relief again. Mei-Shun feels so happy to see Dr. A, ever smiling to give a report of no problem once a month. After this “ceremony”, a small party is waiting for her at home; a sundae in the refrigerator. Her diet normally allows sweets only in the morning, yet such a treat helps her continue it.
Smart Girl
StandardTora-chan is a little eater. Mom-in-law feed her twice a day, yet two third of it would be left over. That is why another cats come to our garden at night. It causes fights between Tora-chan and such interlopers. A vicious circle it seems, while the worst might be that she prefers treats Mei-Shun give her.
We Love Horses
StandardShin recommended Mei-Shun to take a trial lesson of horseback riding. She is so happy to see that clever animal, which many fanciers are unable to own. Reserved date is September 4th. All right, a good goal for her diet. The lighter she is, the more they would like her.
Welcome Back
StandardTora-chan was waiting for Mei-Shun at the porch this morning. She gently meowed asking a treat. Oh, your leg has recovered from the injury. You lost a little weight, didn’t you? All right, eat as much as you like. Purrrrr …

StandardSigh of relief again. This is the 4th visit to the hospital to see Dr. A after Mei-Shun left there. However, another sigh is for her plan of diet, which miserably failed so far. It is awful. Obesity is a kind of disease. All the same for the plump, or even worse because they tend to take themselves still approved to be healthy. Such an idea already looks unhealthy, doesn’t it?

StandardSo happy to hear from Dr. A that Mei-Shun has no problem in the blood, either. The scar is getting smaller thanks to a “magic” tape, which actually works with steroidal agent. Further efforts (including diet!) would lead to better conditions. July 10th is set for the target to lose X kg.
