In my experience, foreigners have one of two reactions (physically at least) to spending an extended period of time in Japan: gaining or losing a fair amount of weight.
After all, the Japanese diet of rice and noodles effects everyone differently. Throw in the "snacking culture," bakeries, freshly made sweets at conbinis, and cake shops - and your body is bound to change.
