if you are a hypoglycemic, you should not fast, you may wish to eat smaller
portions - yet if you do not have enough glucose -you can go into a low blood sugar induced coma, similiar to diabetic's http://www.healthexpertadvice.org/he...ycemia-288.htm

You don't mention PD and I hope you are not "blessed" with it at your age, but one thing that leaps to mind is that you are at a stage where you still need a lot of food and high quality at that. You still have another five years or so of things growing, especially in your nervous system.
Don't think of limiting yourself so much as thinking in terms of maximizing the quality of what you eat. You are laying a foundation that will support you the rest of your life.
