This extra fat will have no effect on your rate of fat loss. At the end of day seven drop the extra carbohydrate block, but maintain the additional monounsaturated fat. Do not forget the critical importance of your late afternoon, and especially your late evening snacks. Most people make their mistakes by not having the late afternoon snack thus waiting too long before the evening meal. Your goal is to spend as many hours of the day as you can in the Zone.
Nobody is perfect.
This makes the program guilt-free as you realize that you're only one meal or snack away from getting back on track. Regardless of what happened during the day, your late night Zone snack will nudge you back into the Zone while you sleep and biochemically re-set you for the next morning. Learn to play food detective. As an example, if you're not hungry prior to a meal, and then find yourself craving sugars and sweets two hours later, you probably consumed too many carbohydrates or the wrong type of carbohydrate during your last meal.
