:smile: So I thought that going a day eating foods that contain no fat would be a healthy decision for me. I thought that it would help me burn some fat because my body would have to use the fat that is already has. Well, tomorrow I start a nurtition class and I have already read the first chapter and come to find out, fat is a more important nutrient than protein. I couldn't have been more wrong about my thoughts. Just felt like posting this for no particular reason.

    fat also helps to satiate you and stop you from feeling hungry. i try to have some kind of snack with "good" fat later in the day.
