| Most of my fat comes from olive oil, eggs and butter. Some days I also have avocado or cream cheese.

| ok.. Thank you guys! it seems silly, but now that ive got the low carb thing down, lol, i started questioning my fat intake. I want to get enough, but not TOO Much. I'm not big on measuring things out, (that's on my list of "to do's). |

| Since you are on induction, about 65% of your calories should come from fat. I find it very difficult to get enough fat from meat alone without overdoing protein.
