Here is Omochi-chan again. Mikan-chan found this stool the best place this morning. Yes, it’s cool, honey. Tasty season has come. Chestnut, sweet potato, pumpkin, pear, grape and green orange … Oh, mom has to make a reservation to see Dr. M, her home dentist!

Tuning Please
StandardAfter 23 Wks
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.
Family Communication
StandardMei-Shun visited her mother’s home. She is well as always, that gives her younger daughter a relief and happiness. Her older daughter lives nearby, making grandma twice-a-week babysitter. Mei-Shun hopes her once-in-a-month visit help us check up mom’s health. How she looks, speaks and walks? How much she eats? A rare visitor might be able to recognize a small change.
Dear Peach Lovers as well?
StandardIt looks that Mei-Shun has become more allergic to foods after taking operation. Among three biggest allergen; wheat, egg, and soy, the last one slightly affects her in milk these days. Kiwi gave her a shocking symptom. Sparkling wine also did, yet it might come from quantity, not from any component of it. And recently, after enjoying a melon and a peach, itchy rash appeared on her mouth. Which one caused this?
After 18 Wks
StandardMei-Shun has enough HDL cholesterol in blood, a bit higher than average. Dr. A always jokes calling it “tasty blood”. Well, it might be tomato juice that circulates within her body. And T-Bil is as well a little higher. Is it why she has often been asked if she ate too much oranges?
Missing Tora-chan
Standard… for a whole day. We saw her bend the right, rear leg yesterday. It looked clear that she had a pain there, yet she never let us touch it. Did you fight with somebody? Or get a poisonous bite by a horsefly? Oh, you had no breakfast. We worried about her all day long. In the evening, when mom-in-law started watering the garden, she unexpectedly appeared from the mint bush. Welcome back, darling.
After 14 Wks
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?
After 10 Wks
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.
Watermelons
StandardWhole ones are still in the field for finishing sunbath. If you are on the waiting list, find cut ones at stores. They are reasonable and ripe enough, but might be too cold for some stomachs. Nature knows what to eat right now.
