    Your protein is low for your overall calorie intake and you eat a lot of carbs--healthy carbs it looks like, but still A LOT compared to how much protein you eat. People are suggesting you eat more fat--yes, more healthy, unsaturated fats like nuts, avocados, olive oil. And you're trainer is right; limit saturated fats--fats that's solid at room temp--cheese, fatty meats, and, butter. And butter BTW is not a 'clean' fat!! Ask your trainer what your macros should be based upon your goals--your profile says lose body fat--so probably more protein and unsaturated fats.

    That's the bad fats!  Like the fat on a prime rib beef steak!  It clogs your arteries!  Along with other bad health things. EVOO, flax seed oil, cod oil, fish oils, walnuts, almonds, and avacodes are all good fats you need called essential fats! 

    Trainer reccomendations. Don't know what other email was for

    My understanding is that artificial trans fats are the only kind you should avoid. I think your trainers information is outdated.
