Before I knew it, I had become chubby.
Before I knew it, the owner had gotten plump...
When I showed my wife the latte art in the photo at the beginning of this article, she made the harsh comment, "It's not like that, lol."
I'm sure there were some customers who thought, "Oh, Mr. Store Owner, something's a bit much..." but were hesitant to speak up because it was such a delicate issue.
Coffee is booming these days. I often see news articles online claiming that coffee has a diet effect, and I had a vague idea about it. However, I was just hoping for it.
It's been five years since I opened the coffee shop.
The other day, I stepped on the scale for the first time in a while and found that I had gained 10kg since before the opening. That's the equivalent of a whole bag of rice on my body... It's amazing when you think about it.
If coffee had any weight loss benefits, this wouldn't have happened... I think that people who say it worked for them were just making normal efforts, not because of coffee.
People around me kept telling me this, but nothing changed...
Since about two years ago, I've noticed that I've gained a little weight, but when I checked my BMI, I was still at my ideal weight. I thought that a drop in my basal metabolic rate was inevitable, so I didn't need to worry too much about it.
His wife and the people around him would say things like, "You've grown a bit," "You're no longer Takakiyo, you're now Pochakiyo," and "You have Sally-chan legs," but I think the fact that he didn't mind being insulted, given the store owner's sexual preference, was his downfall.
People around me were sounding the alarm, but I didn't feel any sense of crisis...
Unless you are aware of it, the situation will not change
So, when I weighed myself for the first time in a while, I found that I had gained 10kg since five years ago.
It's the same at work; unless you take the initiative, the situation won't change. Just being told by others isn't enough.
It was good to be aware of this. I'm actually grateful that I gained 10kg.
I hope I can lose weight little by little from now on.
I would like to try to make some adjustments to my environmental settings without changing my diet or daily life.
For now, I'll think about it while eating the Tsukimi Dango I was given...
On the night of the full moon, we have to eat dumplings.
