Sure, it works for me quite a lot now.  Also, ever since I read the Anopso
guidelines for eating sequence (ie any meat; veges; fruits; nuts; dried
fruits) I tend to do that (not always tho, and nowdays I'm trying eating the
meat separately perhaps with greens and/or seaweed).
Besides, its simpler for me cos I leave out the last two groups most of the
time).

I sometimes try to smell out the next food to eat; but I get a bit fed up
with it too.  I ofter rationalize "if this was the only food around, I'd
have no choice" - then I eat what I feel like.

I agree its a lot easier to leave many rules behind.   Somehow though they
all seem to apply at some time or another.

PS: I just ate a heap of bananas on the "this is the food for now"
technique, but full as I was I didn't feel that great so I tipped in a
couple of egg yolks.  Much better.  (but what about later ...?)
