I have never seen any dietician or nutritionist who actually specifices the calories or size of each mean.
Dr. Fung's point is that eating 6 times per day is too much. Each "snack" and I don't care if it is just rubbing gravy on your gums, stimulates the releases of insulin. Too much insulin causes the body to store fat and in some people, he believes that it causes Type II diabetes.
His point was that before the be obesity crisis started, People ate 3 times a day. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Insulin levels had the chance to return to normal.
Now we eat and snack all day long, right up to bedtime. Insulin levels never return to normal.
He recommends intermittant fasting. Once kind for obese people who just wish too lose wieght and another for diabetics.

Better yet, fill a plate, ditch when no on is looking and be fasting during the celebration.

Definitely, this is a topic of interest to me.
So what's the key? I have no doubt it is diet and what you eat when and how. Of course, I also believe everybody is different or has other variables as well.
But yes I'd love to discuss this further
Gonna sound crazy but I've become a huge believer in sauerkraut, Kimchi, and other fermented vegetables. Just a small cup full a day really seems to help.
I lost over 50 lbs in less than 6 months..
Ever eat Natto? Fermented soy beans....super tasty, but strong flavor. I love that stuff!
Ill have to give it a try , sounds like something that might be hard to find, HMart maybe?

I have been on a journey for the last year. I have been following the theory of Dr. Jason Fung in relation Obesity and Type II diabetes. Dr. Fung is a nephrologist practicing at the Scarborough General Hospital in Ontario Canada. He got fed up with treating people with diabetes whose kidneys have failed He has theories in relation to the causes of both Obesity and Type II diabetes.
...
Is there anyone out there who would like too discuss this issue?

What kinds of foods, and how much/how many calories for each of the 6 meals?

The key is a low carb diet (not keto). None of the big four carbs: Bread, rice, potatoes and pasta. Natural fats, moderate protein
Intermittant fasting.
I need to know if you are overweight or diabetic

Then you are already doing well. Have you switched to natural fats? Olive oil, avocado oil, animal fats and bacon grease? Stay away from plant based oils. They are chemicially rendered and hard to digest.
Don't worry about calories. When you eat, eat well.
