Hi again Chrisb1,

I hope i am not asking too many questions.  Your knowledge is quite an invaluable resource to me, so again, thank you so very much :). I like researching and finding a lot of my own answers, but with the questions i ask you, typically i have made my attempt and it seems the digging will take a lot more time than i would prefer to spend :). 

re: the possibility of eating too much, i believe i misrepresented myself when i said "3 major meals" when really i meant my 3 "non-fruit" meals which are actually not major where calories are concerned, actually about 600 each and 2700 calories for the entire day.  Each of the 5 or so meals is pretty simple and pretty small.  Thankfully with the "pace-ish" "hiit" cardio and the bit of resistance training i do,  i continue to lose about 2 pounds per week as i attempt to build a little bit of muscle along the way (lest they be forced to remove "mighty" from my name :p).  I count calories partly to make sure i am getting enough and 2700 seems to be about right.  My weight is about 196 today, about 8 immensely nutritious, food combining weeks after completing a 10 day water fast where i started the fast at 219.5 and ended it at an estimated real weight of 212.5.

On to another triggered question if i may :).  As the stomach digests (let's take a glass of carrot juice with pulp as an example)... since it doesn't separate the water out, does it somehow send a portion of the entire "meal" into the intestines little by little, minute by minute, or does it "digest" the entire glass of carrot juice and only then send any of it into the intestines, releasing it all at once?

I would think ideally if i was going to precede a meal with a glass of carrot juice (something i want to embrace as yet another daily habit), i would want the juice to be completely out of my stomach before proceeding with food.  How long would you expect that to take with say 4 oz of juice diluted by 4 oz water and just for a means of comparison, what if it was 12 oz of juice diluted by 12 oz of water?

With much thanks,

Mighty Sun Tzu
