Entering the track phase: Achieving a scientific weight loss method that requires no willpower.

2026-03-26

During the entry phase, the satiety sensors are reset.

To achieve this, the first step is to more precisely perceive the aforementioned 10 levels. The goal is to eat only when reaching level 3 and stop eating just as you reach level 6.

This level 6, the feeling of "not having an empty stomach," is difficult to pinpoint accurately. At level 5.9, you might still feel like eating another bite, but once you reach level 6.1, the feeling of emptiness completely disappears. In short, once you reach level 5.9, the feeling of "wanting another bite," stop immediately. After 10 minutes, you should feel completely full.

During the entry phase, as described above, train yourself to gradually reduce your stomach capacity.

This is also a weight loss method introduced by Dr. Hirohiko Matsumoto, the attending physician for Senichi Hoshino's coach, in his book "The Stomach Capacity Weight Loss Method." As a digestive surgeon, Dr. Matsumoto observed from years of experience that obese people invariably have particularly large stomachs, leading him to hypothesize that "shrinking the stomach will make a person thinner," and he has since dedicated himself to guiding weight loss efforts.

Mr. Matsumoto's view is that the reason obese people's stomachs become enlarged is the result of years of "overeating training." Conversely, if one can shrink their stomach through "reduced eating training," they will lose weight.

However, I have the following concerns:

● Those champions of competitive eating contests must have undergone long-term eating training, so why are they all thin? Their stomachs are very large, yet they are not fat at all; the idea that a large stomach leads to obesity doesn't hold water.

● Even if one successfully loses weight under Dr. Matsumoto's guidance, it's impossible to distinguish whether the weight loss is due to a shrunken stomach or simply insufficient calorie intake.

While these questions remain, the stomach capacity diet is indeed a practical weight loss method.

The "stomach capacity diet" encourages people to reduce their food intake to two-thirds of their usual amount. However, if used as the primary method of weight loss, it still relies heavily on personal willpower and mental strength. Furthermore, the "stomach capacity diet" requires consistently eating only two-thirds of your usual portion size for at least six months. If you overeat even once, you have to continue for another six months.

This is similar to the weight loss methods introduced earlier; it requires very strong willpower, which is unreliable for me. This is why I didn't introduce the "stomach capacity diet" before entering the "on-track" stage.

However, for those who have already entered the "on-track" stage, this "stomach capacity diet" is easy to follow.

As a test, try eating some of your favorite foods from before you started dieting. Don't worry, it's just a test. Feel free to order those foods you used to love and that made you gain weight.

Okay, first, make sure to drink soy milk and vegetable juice every morning, and take some vitamin pills to ensure a balance of vitamins and minerals.

Curry pork chops, cakes, pastries, and bread are all fine. Okay, let's try it.
