I am wondering particularly about how long to wait before introducing fats into the diet again. i am not even talking nuts here, just more like olives, avo, etc..maybe some oils here and there? any thoughts>

well i use oils during my fast... so i can't imagine why you wouldn't use them while breaking a fast or beyond.

i tend to hold off on nuts for about 6 weeks... but if it's a short fast you could consider adding them sooner.

olives... i would think if you are eating greens and digesting them that olives could be introduced around the same time. greens (for me) is one of the things i introduce after much breaking... definitely not in the first days (or weeks on an extended fast).

i stick with soft fruits (sweet and savoury) for quite a few days... i find the gentler the break, the more appreciative my body is.
