09:39 AM		i think i remember reading that somewhere. Please explain further. How long should one wait before going on a walk after eating 2 pieces of fruit and 2 yolks?? Is more body fat used for energy when walking if blood sugar/stored glycogen is low or empty? Is it best to wait for an hour or 2 after eating to walk briskly?

about 1 - 1.5 hours, to ensure proper protein digestion

No. You even need sufficient sugar to utilize bodyfat properly. So, make sure to replenish the blood sugar level sufficiently all the time, by zipping from a juice for example. (it takes a big meal to replenish glycogen depots)

After eating fruits / drinking juices, you don't have to wait at all; just after eating animal food
