> Realistically, if you eat smaller servings and walk more, it's easier to have a healthy weight. Yeah, many years ago as a student I spent a summer in Manhattan. The diet probably couldn't have been more different than Japan, but the combination of walking a ton compared to the suburbs where I grew up, and the fact that as a poor student in a very expensive city my portions were smaller out of necessity (e.g. my snacks were usually fresh fruit sold outside of a store/bodega) I got much healthier.
