i use about a half of a medium one (or smaller) a day. is this too much of a good thing?
AM I EATING TOO MUCH AVACADO
Everything in moderation.
All you need to do is make sure your fats are where you want them during the day. If you like avocado, I say fine as long as you're not over eating in fats.

In the Oct issue of M&F:
"YOUR GOAL: To drop bodyfat
EAT THIS" Avocado
Avocados are full of monounsaturated fat, which isn't generally stored as bodyfat. They also contain other compounds that can boost fat loss. One increases the production of thyroid hormone, which increases metabolic rate. Another in mannoheptulose, a sugar (ironically) that blunts insulin release. SInce a higher matabolic rate burns more calories, and high insulin levels are associated with fat storage, eating 1/2 - 1 avocado per day can help you lose those extra lumps."
