Trying to lose body fat. Do I eat too much avocado?!
Question: I have one avocado per day. It's part of a 1500-1600 cal per day diet, combined with at least an hour of exercise.
I'm trying to lose weight, and I realize that Avocado is high in fat(even though it's good fat). So I'm wondering if this is slowing the weight loss process.
The way I look at it, as long as you burn more calories than you take in, you'll lose weight. But I wonder if the high fat(however good the fat is) is slowing the "fat burning" process.
Anyone understand the science of body fat loss that might help answer this question?

I think it's fine. You need good healthy fats and if it fits your diet, then enjoy!
Much better to eat an avocado that a bag of chips
If I were you, I would keep the avacodo in my diet but not every day. Try mixing up your diet so the body is getting more nutrition through lots of nutrient rich vegtables like spinach! because the Avocado is high in fat I would reduce the intake but if you have to have it maybe just have half :-)
