Fats

Hi everyone,
So I have a question about fats. I know there are good and bad ones and that the nuts are good ones, but too much of a good thing is bad. So, how much fat should one have in their diet? How do you balance a diet like this? I'm new to it and would appreciate ANY information at all! Thanks so much!

I tend to eat over my calories but on my vegetarian diet with lots of nuts and avocado, I often still don't go over the amount of fat MFP allows me (except on weekends) . . .0

I can tell you from my son's experience that if you eat an entire can of cashews, you will poop orange oil!0

How do you not go over on your fats? Thanks! 0

You can check out my food diary. It's public. I eat a ton of food and too many sweets, but I think not eating animal products (exception for some social situations) keeps my fat intake in check. I eat cashews (not many) every day and also have walnuts, pecans, almonds, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, and chia seeds on a regular basis. I eat a half an avocado almost every day (a whole one yesterday!). I also enjoy coconut oil and olive oil. Maybe because of the portion size, going over on my fat intake as defined by MFP has not been a problem.0
