Green olives

[JEVapa]

High fat content. Avocado is the highest

Does your doc say to use margarine instead of butter?

I love olives. But alas, the doc says I can't have them anymore. Plus no more avocado, but that's alright I was never a fan of avocado.

Interesting: From one of my favorite science-based health-focused websites:
Monounsaturated fat
Fats that are in foods are combinations of monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, and saturated fatty acids. Monounsaturated fat is found in canola oil, olives and olive oil, nuts, seeds, and avocados. Eating food that has more monounsaturated fat instead of saturated fat may help lower cholesterol and reduce heart disease risk. However, it has the same number of calories as other types of fat, and may still contribute to weight gain if eaten in excess.

Mine says to setup eating bacon. I fought that battle for 3 years. :-(
(I still sneak a piece every once in a while) but my triglycerides are back to skinniest normal.)

RED FOX said his doctor told him to lay off alcohol. And cigars. And wild women. Red told the doctor he was going to feel pretty foolish at 90 years old, laying in the hospital, dying from NOTHING!

Only way I can eat olives is buried under a ton of cheese on a pizza.
