I would be careful about telling folks that there is nothing wrong with fats! There are good fats and bad fats and the negative aspects of bad fats are well known.
I understand what you are saying. I should have reworded that.
My basic premise is that fiber in general, and psyllum husk specifically, will absorb most of the fats digested with it, especially when the fiber is taken in mass quantities. Just look at any Quaker oatmeal box.
Furthermore, even saturated fats, or the horrific partially hydrogenated oils, are not bad for you if taken in reasonable MODERATION. I have very low bad cholesterol level.
I contend that if the above premise is true, then most of the "bad" fats will pass thru your system along with the fiber.
Notice that I mentioned, at the bottom of my post, NOT to take fiber when taking the "good" fats. Why, because you do want these to be digested. Same thing goes for fat soluble vitamins.
Therefore, I should have reworded my original statement to say "...there is nothing wrong with fats, especially if they pass thru your system largely undigested".
Look just don't eat fried chicken every day. Just have it on a special occasion, and take a shitload of fiber with it.
I think that the combination of alpha lipoic acid, fiber and moderate dieting really helped me lose a *lot* of fat.
There were times that I just *had* to cheat.
