My main issue is calibrating how much fruit to eat in the morning. I've done a LOT of fasting in the past and coming off of carnivore and IF it's hard to interpret the signals my body is giving. Do I have more fruit if I start to feel just a little hungry? Because it's easy to ignore small hunger pangs after all that fasting. But my main goal is to upregulate mitochondria and metabolism. So how do I know if I'm feeling good because I'm efficiently burning through sugar and nutrients or if I've already switched over to being too fasted and now I'm getting a high off of stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol? I don't want to just feel good RIGHT NOW but actually be increasing vitality

Trying to use FTN to get from 12-13% BF to sub 10%. I am unsure how much fruit to eat in the morning: I can eat less fruit and hopefully consume less calories that way (I don’t mind being a bit hungry), or eat a ton of fruit to hopefully increase my metabolism since I’m telling my body there is abundance (which is kind of the whole point of FTN) - what is the better way to reduce body fat? Also, better to have a single large fruit bowl for breakfast and then nothing till lunch or snacking on fruit throughout the morning?
