    I suggest avoiding fried foods and using olive oil sparingly as a condiment. That's more flavor for a smaller portion.

    And a lot of people would totally fail at weight loss if they had to eliminate anything in its entirety permanently from their diet. I eat anything I please when I can fit in the calories. And nearly 90lbs later it's worked just fine for me.

    True, which is why I did not use the words "eliminate" or "permanently."

    So I was supposed to know that your words "I suggest avoiding fried foods" actually meant "Don't have fried foods, but once in a while." or "Don't eliminate fried food, but I suggest avoiding them on occasion." Avoid X item, means avoid X item. You may not have said "eliminate" or "permanently", but it's a given since you didn't say "temporarily" or "occasionally" either. If you mean something more than you type we won't know it unless you actually use those extra bits of information when you type it.
