Hello there! 🙋♂️✨ It's Sunday, 3:30 PM. I'm massangoto! 🧑💻
My weekly X (formerly Twitter) follower count, which I've recently started tracking again, has reached 4,898. Thank you so much to all my followers! I'm truly delighted! m(_ _)m
Last Sunday, I switched from using cards to cash, and believe it or not, I've actually succeeded in saving money! It's a strange phenomenon, but physically holding the cash seems to make me naturally tighten my purse strings. That's how it's been going so far.
I've also been successful with my diet. As of this morning's weigh-in, I am just 1.4 kg away from my target weight. A friend mentioned that doctors typically recommend a pace of about 2 kg per month. Since I stick to one meal plus a small extra per day and don't exercise, I'm slowly but surely losing weight. Since 1.4 kg is pretty much within the margin of error now, once I hit the goal, I'll decide whether to lose a little more or focus on maintaining.
Furthermore, a month is about to pass since I introduced a new element toward achieving my dream. I will report on this as soon as I achieve it.
It certainly is cold, isn't it? I'm currently writing this blog without the heater on, using my futon and a blanket as a lap warmer, and wearing my indoor coat. Time is flying quickly toward Christmas and New Year's, and the Christmas trees and illuminations look beautiful. Although they don't have much to do with me personally, I hope everyone has a wonderful end-of-the-year holiday season.
Today, I bought Kokukuma Kimchi and Squid Shiokara (salted squid guts) at the supermarket, so it looks like I won't need to go shopping for a while. These are the absolute best accompaniments for rice! I still have two servings of Natto with green onions left, too!
Well then, that's all for this blog update! See you next Sunday!
I wish you a day of no accidents, no traffic violations, safety for your family, and prosperity for your business.
This was massangoto! 🙋✨
