☆ weight-loss 体重の減少
============================
Is weight-loss and how to be slim a popular topic in Japan? When I lived in Japan, I often saw advertising for weight-loss and gadgets or new exercise ideas that could help you lose weight. I always thought this was surprising, because most Japanese people are already slim anyway, so there is no need for weight-loss!
However, now that I have returned to Australia, there are so many overweight people, that weight-loss is actually really important – for health and to avoid diabetes for example. However, I don’t see that many advertisements for weight-loss. There are a few famous names such as “Weight Watchers” (a company selling food for weight-loss) and “Michelle Bridges” (an online personal trainer and TV personality) but otherwise, it seems that no one is really interested in weight-loss. I’m a bit worried about this, really…
