Don't be afraid of fats
One common mistake people trying to lose weight make is avoid fats as if they were plaque. Avoiding all and any fats is a sure way to sabotage your fat loss. The truth is that you need fats in order to burn fats. The lack of fats in your diet will also degrade your health and performance.
Omega-3 oils from flax, fish, or fish oil capsules, improve health and actually assist fat loss. One to three tablespoons a day of flax oil mixed in a protein drink, used as salad oil with vinegar, or taken straight, will dramatically improve fat loss and long-term health.
The omega-3 oil found in flax oil known as alpha- linolenic acid is an essential fatty acid (EFA) and is required for optimal health and fatty acid metabolism.
Further on, fats found in nuts, esp. in sesame paste, are essential for women and long term avoidance of their consumption may lead to hormonal disorders.
