Okay...
1) Eat the RIGHT fats...
Saturated and Trans fats are UNhealthy because they raise you levels of LDL (so-called "bad cholesterol"). Trans fats may also lower your HDL(or "good cholesterol") levels and increase your risk for heart disease-not to mention weight gain.
But unsaturated fats (which include mono-and polyunsaturated) have important benefits.
They promote satiety, reduce hunger and minimally impact blood sugar. That's important because if your blood dips too low, you may experience cravings, brain fog, overeating and low energy, making it "fiendishly difficult to lose weight."
