Diet Songyamashita rina
Rina Yamashita is a singer-songwriter from Nara Prefecture who is active mainly in the Kansai region.
Her song “Diet Song” will ease the mind of anyone on a diet and make you feel like giving it your best.
When you’re dieting, it’s a constant battle with your appetite and the temptation of sweets.
The lyrics are so relatable that you can’t help but say, “I know exactly how that feels!” It’s sure to become a cheer song that helps you resist sweet temptations and face your diet with a positive attitude!
health-conscious fat personHIPPY
Despite its upbeat melody, this song packs an overwhelming punch with its lyrics and music video.
It crams in every ‘fat person’ cliché and self-deprecating joke imaginable, and humorously presents the pros and cons of dieting.
It’s a novelty song that, annoyingly, has a chorus that’s genuinely cool.
Like magicSHISHAMO
This song is packed tight with a girl’s desire to “become cute”—SHISHAMO’s “Like Magic.” It’s included on their 2017 album SHISHAMO 4 and was also used in a Townwork commercial.
It’s a track you can relate to, capturing the feelings of how girls care about even the tiniest details and work so hard, as well as the honest thoughts that slip out when we’re worried about dieting and our body shape.
Above all, listening to this song makes you think, “I’m going to work hard to become cute!”

Yum-Yum!Momoiro Kurōbā Zetto
For Momoclo, it’s a rare jazzy track, with lyrics and composition by trackmaker Hyadain (Kenichi Maeyamada).
It’s a positive and cute song that says we should stay healthy while appreciating the deliciousness of food, rather than going on extreme diets.
SAMISAMABRADIO
It’s a slightly sleazy song about hopeless adults who pray to the gods for luck to satisfy their base desires and everyday wishes.
It also captures a common daily scenario: while a diet hinges on carrot-and-stick discipline, losing weight means nothing if you overeat as a reward.
A song about dieting.takayan
This song packs in relatable diet scenarios and a bit of useful know-how, and its title by popular SNS rapper Takayan says it all: “The Diet Song.” With a catchy, satisfying sound and addictive lyrics, plus basic and helpful information about dieting, it’s the kind of track that might boost your motivation to slim down.
And as you listen, it reminds you that dieting ultimately comes down to steady, persistent effort.
Believe in yourselfAbe Mao
A song I’d like to recommend as a cheer anthem for anyone working hard on their diet is Mao Abe’s “Believe in yourself.” Released as a single in 2014, it was written as the theme song for the anime Baby Steps, which centers on soft tennis.
True to a sports-anime theme song, its lyrics are uplifting and powerfully encouraging—sure to boost your motivation for dieting.
Dieting is a battle with yourself, and this is a strong, supportive anthem that backs your mindset and pushes you forward.
