That's right! You can eat fat-rich foods and lose weight. Fat actually makes you feel fuller and some foods contain fat that doesn't lead to cellulite formation which causes you to gain weight. Read on to see our list of 8 fat-rich foods that can help you lose weight alongside their fat-inducing counterparts.

While butter is better than margarine, it's probably best to stay away from both of them. Avocado contains more fat-rich nutrients than any other plant in the world. Rich in oleic acid, avocado helps to control cholesterol levels, aids in blood glucose stabilization and will make your immune system stronger while making you feel fuller and help you to lose weight.

There's really no contest here. As amazing as salami is, it's loaded with soy, fat, lard, and flour which will clog up many parts of your body. Salmon, on the other hand, is fat-rich in vitamin A, which keeps your skin healthy, and omega acids, which help with arthritis and depression. Salmon will also take longer to digest, keeping your tummy feeling full, helping you to lose weight.

It's not all bad here, but, bacon is definitely a no-no! Full of bad calories, saturated fats and way more salt than your body needs, bacon does not contain the healthy fat you are looking for. Eggs, on the other hand, are high in protein, vitamins, antioxidants, and the kind of fat that helps you lose weight. Just be careful how you cook your eggs. Poached would be way healthier than fried.

Some nuts can be healthy for you. Of course, you'll want to avoid salted and honey-roasted as they add way too much butter and salt. Almonds, walnuts and hazelnuts are examples of nuts that contain fat-rich nutrients to allow your metabolic process to help you lose weight. Popcorn is, unfortunately, rarely healthy. Unless you eat it without any salt, butter, or other flavorings, its calories will only make you gain weight.

Yogurt is perfect for weight loss, fat-rich with protein, calcium, and probiotics while sour cream is as high in fat content as heavy cream and does nothing to make you feel full. So, skip the sour cream and enjoy your favorite Greek yogurt.

The omega-9 in olive oil which helps with cholesterol is the only real benefit it has over vegetable oil. Both are high in calories, but, olive oil does have a bit of an edge over vegetable oil, especially when it comes to frying foods.

Consuming aged cheese will provide your body with valuable probiotics. Just control your urge to over-eat. Moderation is the key with most anything. Cream, on the other hand, has so many bad calories that it's not even worth the rich flavor it offers. If it's cream you crave, use it sparingly.

Mutton, or lamb, will beat out pork any day for a fat-rich food. Packed with saturated fatty acids which fight off your body's fat cells and lecithin which helps to keep your cholesterol in check, mutton is much healthier than pork which is high in bad calories and high in fat. You'll get even more of a benefit from mutton if you trim off any excess fat before cooking.
