If you grew up in the 80’s and 90’s like me, then you’ve probably been conditioned to believe that FAT is BAD. And honestly, I think that’s a hard bias to overcome. For YEARS, we were told that fat was bad for us, clogged our arteries, made us gain weight, and was the root cause of all health problems. Food manufacturers created low-fat and fat-free versions of our favorite foods, and we believed we were making healthier choices.

But it turns out, that was all nonsense. If you’ve read this blog, you know why fat is GOOD for you. It’s our body’s preferred fuel source and helps stabilize hormones. Eating more healthy fats and fewer processed carbs can help with weight loss and overall health in many ways.

It’s hard to not feel that freedom, struggle with weight loss, and health. I know the struggle, the discomfort, and loss of confidence. After years of struggling, I realized I needed to do things differently. I researched weight loss, hormones, and learned the truth about nutrition.

I believe in the power of healthy eating to transform lives. The Thin Adapted System that helped me lose 40 pounds is about avoiding sugar and processed foods while eating more healthy fats, whole foods, and proteins. It’s simple but can be confusing if you’ve been misled for so long.
So, let’s break it down. Fat is essential for health, skin, hair, hormone balance, and energy. Healthy fats like olive oil, avocados, and fatty fish are vital for our bodies, but not all fats are created equal. Monounsaturated fats, found in olive oil, avocados, nuts, and seeds, can lower LDL cholesterol levels. Each type of fat (monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, and saturated) has a different effect on our bodies, and not all are healthy in large quantities.
