Fat and Weight Loss 

Fat comes in mainly 3 categories:

This is the worst type of fat that you can eat. Unfortunately we tend too consume far too many of these types of fat and they are readily available in fast foods, processed foods, and pre-packaged foods.

Eating too many saturated fats over a period of time will be enough to guarantee weight problems and numerous health problems . By following a diet high in saturated fats you are heading down a road that you really want to avoid,becuse weight loss will be a pointless exercise.

These types of fats MUST be kept to a minimum. They will result in high blood pressure and will begin to clog up your arteries; this will lead various health problems including heart disease and diabetes.
