Hi Jeff and community! I was really looking forward to get to this step because I think I might be eating too much fat and maybe that s the reason it s hard for me to loose weight together with eating sweets from time to time.
So far I ve kept my fat intakes during lunch and dinner the same than before Thrive and now I ve included more fat also in the breakfast. I m using olive oil in any of my meal. Vegeteble, carbs and proteins. And I want to remeber that I don t eat meat. I know it s not optimal but it s my decission, so first of all please don t try to convince. I want your honest help with the foods that I have available. Said this, I must add the my regular breakfast always include a really big yogurt or kefir and what I add to eat keep changing: nuts, salmon, some veggies, depending on the day and how hungry I am. And generally in left the fish for the dinner, so almost every night I m eating fish. This left me with the eggs and cheese option for lunch just for having some variety. I love fish but eating at every meal is boring. And also it seems a better idea to eat the more fatty protein options earlier in the day. So my questions are the next:
1.In the best case if I try to control and measure myself I ll be eating 2 table spoons of olive oil and 2 eggs or 40 grams of strong cheese with lunch. Is that too much?
2.Not in the best case I can be eating all the above plus half avocado or a bit more cheese. Is that too much?
3.In case is too much just for leaning purposes, is bad for health purposes? Is bad eating cheese everyday? I love cheese and almost eat everyday, good one of course.
4. Is ok to take 2 table spoon of olive oil with dinner in total?
4. Should I avoid then eating eggs or cheese at night? Sometimes, like once a week I d love to have 4 -5 egss or a really good piece. Would be ok to do it if I eliminate the 2 table spoon of olive oil?
Just for you to know I size 178 centimetres and weight 72 kilograms. I don t know my body fat percentage. I m not fat, but certainly not lean. 10 months ago a machine said I have 13% body fat, but I don t trust it and think I have more, maybe 15% but I really don t know.
Thanks in advance and hope you all can help me!
