You keep moving the goalpost.
Lets just assume we are on a caloric budget and we deal with fat being fat, so we can, like good third graders in math, just count the calories. No more wiggling around with "too many calories" and "you need to burn calories to transform them to carbs" and then "oh, but it also sticks to your abdomen". Pick one. Stick to that one, and argue with that. Also, yeah, since, for example, coffee is the highest source of antioxidants in the western diet for many people, I am willing to make a bet that sunflower oil will going to be their highest source of E-vitamin (300% of your required daily amount per 100ml). Olive oil will be the highest source of Vitamin K and both Vitamin E for people who do not GORGE on greens. In the US, the olive oil wont be the highest source for Vitamin E only because peanuts are more abundant in them. |

You will be starving all the time, and won't be able to make it past a month. A lot of satiety comes from the volume that foods takes up in the stomach and oils are the worst food for that.
In order to lose weight, you need foods high in volume and low in calories, so that you feel satiated without overating, and oils are the worst food from that perspective.
Sunflower oil is almost 900 calories per 100g, like olive oil is 120 calories per tablespoon. So one tablespoon of any of those oils has the same calories as a large banana.
Had two tablespoons in the bottom of the pan to fry something, and bam you just added the equivalent of two large bananas to your meal without even noticing.
In the US, the overconsumption of oils and the ton of added hidden calories that they add to a meal is one of the reasons for the obesity epidemic.
Eating oils for vitamins is not a good solution, vitamins are better found directly in greens, vegetables, and fruits. Just eat plenty of fruits and vegetables and you will be OK.
Coffee is not that bad, but a better source of anti-oxidants are red fruits, that can be easily eaten every day at breakfast with oats for example.
Peanuts, for example, which are also mostly fat are a much better source for Vitamin E because its a whole food, it's not an extract. Together with vitamin E you are getting a lot of other nutrients.
Peanut oil, on the other hand would be a bad choice, because it's an extract of a whole food.
