I'm reviving this old thread because I was curious about whether or not simply changing the type of fat you eat could bust a stall. This thread came up in a search.
I'm in maintenance, I'm not stalled, but I noticed a sharp decline in the scale since deciding to eat more monounsaturated fat a few weeks ago! I did it partially out of boredom of meat, and partially out of curiosity about avocadoes. I tried them for the first time recently, and I think they'll be a staple for me now. I've also started eating flax "porridge" almost daily, as well as natural peanut butter.
Unfortunately, I don't keep track of my intake on fitday anymore, so this isn't too scientific. Who knows - maybe it's the increase in fiber, or perhaps my calorie intake has gone down. But boosting the unsaturated fat could be a useful stall buster.
