Since I will be deceasing HEALTHY fats, I will be decreasing grains. I will however be eating oatmeal in the morning since I made my oatmeal pancakes however after breakfast, I have no problem with grains..I don't crave them afterwards. I have heard a lot of good things from people who increase their fats, expecially from coconut oil. I heard it helps a lot with reducing belly bloating. I have a big issue in that department everyday and even though the test results came back negative, I still feel my body casnt digest wheat properly or oats, (unless they are gluten free) which I havent bothered to buy....
My plan for this week. yes it is already tuesday, but it's no excuse to start. I will be having a portion of fats in every meal:
My healthy fats will come from:
cococonut oil
peanut butter
almond butter
olive oil
and naturally ocurring fats in whatever meats I eat. Since most of my calories will be from protein, that alone will not and has not been giving me energy as i need it for excercise so today I will be on my way to trader joes to stock up on coconut oil. I already have peanut butter and almond butter as well as olive oil. Tomorrow i will try my best to replace my oatmeal pancakes with yogurt, but usually that's tough to do so I need to come up with a plan.
Who's in with the FAT CHALLENGE? :)
I already eat a lot of fat, no need for me to eat more. How much do you eat now?
ReplyDeleteHi Dawn, well I dont count fat calories.
Deletebut on a daily basis ill have for example
1/2-1 tbp peanut butter
1/2 olive oil
those are really the only "added fats" i have. sometimes ill hae maybe 2tbsp peanut or almond butter on one day and other fats will come from things like meat. i dont have red meat. Maybe 3 times a month? Not a fan of red meat. mostly my meat fats come from lean turkeys and lean chicken. not a fan of meat fats.
