Just as a side note, I mentioned I fat fasted solely on coconut oil based fats. I think, personally (and this is just my opinion), that my success hinged not on the fat fast, but that the fats I fasted on were primarily MCT's... the fat in coconut oil is not really recognized as a fat like a nut or bacon or avocado would. I wouldn't have even considered eating foods like cheese or nuts in P2 - people have a rough enough time incorporating them back into P3 that I just feel like that would be a recipe for disaster, but I may be wrong.

Anyways, I just wanted to throw out there the difference between the fat type I fasted on vs. the typical Atkins fat fast menu because I risked the fast in p2.
