So, the unpeeled fruits do include the harder skinned fruits, like apples and pears...raw too?
Oh, I love apples, and I eat a raw one a day (peel and all) when I can get local ones in the fall. I don't eat so many pears, but the other fruits I eat (peaches, nectarines, berries) I rarely peel or cook. But they're never more than 1/3 or 1/4 of my meal.

And you do eat an SF food in the meal, not just rely on your Acacia? Or do you take Acacia before the meal and eat the SF in the meal?
Yes, I have SF in every meal I eat, even if I'm taking one of my acacia doses at the same time. I only take acacia twice a day, though, so I have several meals/snacks without it. If I wasn't so lazy, I'd have acacia with every meal, though!

If I ate about 3/4 cup of cereal, do you think that is enough SF for an unpeeled plum, apple, nectarine?
What if I have a veggie in the meal? Can I still have a fruit or is that going overboard?
Everyone is different. You're not going to know what works for you until you try it out yourself. You can always start out with smaller amounts of fruit and/or chop and/or cook it, and then ramp up from there.
But personally, I do sometimes have fruits and vegetables at the same meal. One of 'em is going to be cooked or chopped or put in a smoothie, though! And I'm still a little wary about salads, although there are enough people here eating them that I'm going to challenge myself the next time I see a yummy one.
