No, not really. If you find yourself in a stall then there might be (mono's behave differently than saturated fats inside your body and can make a difference.) But all fats, with the exception of trans-fats are good fats.

Depending on whether you have a big 'nut' day or a big 'olive oil' day you can have higher mono or saturated fats. If you watch that pie-chart you'll start to see what contains what - LCing tends to make a fat expert out of us

And don't sweat it - we all had that doubletake moment when we first started out. Eating 70-80% fat will become normal.
