When can I have olive oil?
I've used olive oil and coconut oil for cooking since I left full liquids..
(And I eat potatoes from time to time - I avoid refined/processed carbs, but I see no reason to avoid healthy plants.)

Potatos are what made us fat. Don't get back into that habit. When you can have a little salad put some EVOO on it with a little s&p. Don't start with the starches. You will be sorry

For the first three years, I did not touch rice, potatoes, cereal, flour, pasta, noodles, bread or sugar. I was certainly allowed those things on my plan, but still chose not to eat them. I know they make people fat and I gave up. At almost eight years out I eat very small amounts of those foods, but still would not eat a potato cooked in olive oil.
