For me what helped was going on a "low iron" diet. I.e., no
iron-fortified foods, and eating more fish rather than beef. And no
molasses. I am not sure exactly why this helps, but people with higher
ferritin levels seem to not process glucose as well as those with
lower ferritin levels, so that might be a clue. Or it may be that
eating fish helps. If you look at obesity by country, the countries
that eat the most beef/pork/mutton are the fattest, and the
fish-eaters are the skinniest. Dr. Eades mentions the iron issue in
"Protein Power", and also recommends donating blood.

> i've pretty much gotten used to the fast 5 way of life. i eat around 900 calories a day, 1200 max on days i get a bit more hungry. i'm 5' 7", stabilized at around 145 lbs and want to lost about 5 more. i exercise twice a week for about an hour and a half but i still have a layer of, perhaps because of winter!, blubber that i'd like to get rid of. i pretty much keep to the 5 hour fast about 6 days of the week and my daily diet consists of majority protein/fat in the form of meat or eggs, some whole grain carbs and fruits. does anyone have any tips?
