    nova what is your take on a situation like this.

    lets say someone is getting a few weeks out from a show and the calories count.

    A Pam fat free spary etc has less calories than the olive oil....

    What do you pick?

    is it okay sometimes to pick the less nuturious or less benefical one?

    Now i am new and the olive oil might go towards certain grams of fat you need in the diet but speaking from the standpoint that i would pick the one because it has less calories (cutting situation)

    In the bulking i would pick the olive as i am not so hard pressed for calories.

    realistically, this situation would never occur for someone who is 2 weeks out from a show. they would have their diet planned very well.

    since we're probably just hypotheticallying... i'd still take the olive oil. some olive oil will not make or break contest prep at 2 weeks. i still err on the high side of calories while cutting.
