NO OIL!
Except for fish oil, I've never heard of an animal oil, unless you mean rendered fat like lard. NONE of that either. This program does not allow isolated, refined fats whether animal or vegetable. Nor does it allow animal foods, whether low in fat or not. High fat plant foods such as nurse, seeds and their butters might be OK if you are at a healthy weight with no health issues to resolve.
If losing weight is the goal, then it's important to lower calorie density, and high fat foods sabotage that. There is no need to count grams of fat, but there is a real need to make food choices count.
All the info is available here as The Free Program, found under the Education tab up top, should you be without a book to refer to.
