Since you brought up a few different points, I thought it would be easier to break up my responses into three parts. Here's the second.

This reminds me of the Dr. Douglas Graham 80/10/10 diet, which is mostly fruit during the day with veggies and a small amount of fat at night. In contrast, Dr. Gabriel Cousens recommends keeping the same ratio of fats/carbs/protein for each meal and choosing that ratio based on your Ayurveda body type and your metabolism.
I think both approaches are valid, or even something in between, depending on your body, activity, and what you used to eat. Go with your intuition and pay attention to how you feel. Then adjust from time to time, as needed. Dr. Cousens says that when you make a dietary change that feels great at first, you should give it about three months and re-evaluate. Your body terrain will change over those three months. Also, sometimes things that give quick results aren't necessarily the best choices long term.
