I just read on another thread about adding olives to your meals to increase the fat intake (4 olives are 2.5 g of fat!! That is a FABULOUS idea!! I love Olives and they are low WW points so it all works! Anyone else got an tips on increasing fat intake??

I like trail mix too (i posted the info on the olives :) I posted a thread about how I add it to my non fat yogurt and it gives me all the fat I need for breakfast

Also when I'm out of olives like I am today while at work I keep a jar of reduced fat peanut butter and eat 1 table spoon of it after my meal to bring up my fat grams

I never thought of olives, but they are like pringles for me, once I pop...well u get it. I use reduced fat peanut butter also. Sometimes when I need fat I spread some red. PB on some chocolate mini quaker rice snacks and its a lil like a peanut butter cup(A girl can dream can't she? lol)...Almonds are great too....I think its nice to bulk up on the fat by adding good fats as opposed to just putting a spoon of butter on ur toast you know? I mean I think with Alli, fat is fat, good or bad fats don't matter but I personally feel better about consuming "good fats" as opposed to all "bad fats". GOod Luck!

I am the same exact way i could eat a jar of olives but to control that I pack up a tiny tupperwear like the one for sauces with just enought olives to get me through the work week and keep it in the fridge that way i don't go over board on the olives

Thank you Sasha and Jen. I spent most of yesterday morning scratching my head trying to figure out how to put more fat into my WW diet without blowing it all! Olvies, PB and a little salad are awesome answers! Good luck to you both on your weight loss!
