It began serialization in Media Factory's Comic Cune magazine in May 2024, and has been compiled into three volumes as of July 2026.

The series follows Eiko Ōfurita, Shizuka Atami, and Mitsuki Tokufu, three gravure models who are members of the popular group Three Piece. The three idols love food, but their constant eating results in weight gain. With rumors of their apparent weight gain gaining traction on social media, and the possibility of their careers being derailed, the three are forced to go on a diet and to take up exercise to lose weight. However, this proves to be a challenge given the temptation of their love for food remains.

• Mitsuki Tokufu • A 17-year-old gravure model with long black hair. As Three Piece's youngest member, she also has the least experience. • Eiko Ōfurita • An 18-year-old gravure model with blonde twintailed hair. She is a former child actress and serves as Three Piece's leader. • Shizuka Atami • A 20-year-old gravure model with long blonde hair. • Yokihito Zendagawa • Eiko, Shizuka, and Mitsuki's manager. He warns them that the three will be let go by their agency if they are unable to lose enough weight by Christmas.

Mekimeki was inspired to start the series after noticing how people around them tended to appear thin despite eating a lot. They wanted to create a manga that showed that people could eat delicious food while still maintaining a healthy physique. They watched social media videos of people eating, as well as sometimes eating and preparing the relevant food itself, as inspiration in writing and drawing the scenarios. They were also influenced by their own experiences gaining and losing weight, with them wanting to tackle a usually serious topic in a light-hearted manner. They would often visit restaurants, particularly those that trended online, and use these experiences as influences for the food tasting scenes.

The series began serialization in Media Factory's Comic Cune magazine on May 27, 2024. The first tankōbon volume was released on October 24, 2024; three volumes have been released as of July 27, 2026.
