Saturated Fat

I eat a lot of saturated fat, only real reason I'd consider it "bad" is because its calorically-dense and nutritionally devoid. unsaturated fats are better for you

I just try to eat as few processed foods as possible.

I feel like that covers all the bad food memes

There's studies floating around saying that fats (especially saturated ones) are super bad and they kill you fast with cholesterol and heart failture and shit.
But there are more studies coming out that say that general weight gain by sugar is just as bad as a fatty diet.

The thing is that fats, all of them, are energy dense. They're the more energy dense of anything we eat. So you need to consume less by volume to reach your energy needs.

The problem is that your stomach doesn't tell you you're full based on energy. You are "full" when you literally are full. So more fat = more energy for the same meal.

So if I ate well under maintenance and worked out, but had a lot of saturated fat in my diet (40+ grams), am I fucked?

Is it merely about being able to burn off said fats, or do you have to limit them regardless? Just curious

I'm no expert, but it increasingly seems like it's ok.

If you're not eating saturated animal fat you're a faggot

not true. it's impossible to overeat, say, porkchops. your gorge will rise. unlike, say, pizza, which tells your brain to keep consuming even after you've had enough.

Isn't the "I've eaten enough" hormone triggered by expansion of the stomach?
So it doesn't matter what you eat, so long as it is voluminous enough?
