You could get vegetable fats from avocados, olive oil, etc. Fats are essential to life.

It's a myth that eating fats will increase your BMI. It's eating too many calories that causes that.

I agree, those and coconut are my preferred sources of fat.

This is the opposite of my intended meaning. I was referring to GP's blanket statement that replacing meat with carbs is bad. The "BMI obsession" snark is a response to people advocating extreme low carb diets as if they are inherently healthier (rarely are the components of that diet discussed) than a diverse diet of unrefined foods (including the occasional carbohydrate). Keto is great for showing off your six pack. I don't think that means that it is by default healthy.
