Added fats: Put olive oil or butter or coconut oil on everything you eat. Never eat carbs by themselves so that your blood sugars are stable. Avoid fried foods, fast foods. Avoid sugar and sweets. You may have some sort of metabolic problem like hyperthyroidism that should be checked out. Avoid any stimulants as these can impair appetite.
