New lowc, I think the LCHF message is being messed up by popular Keto boards like Reddit and our new found love of fat. When you set your "Macros" at 75% fat that also has to include the amount of Fat coming from your body. Kelley Pounds had another post and read her first post too:
https://lowcarbrn.wordpress.com/201...-force-the-fat/. titled
Don't Force The Fat! Excellent..with the pie charts, Dr Westman videos, and bar graphs to illustrate how fat loss works over the phases of weight loss.

Of course there is no way to measure how much fat is coming from the body, why if you use a tracker at all (not necessary) it should only be to see carbs under 20g and the appropriate grams of protein for you. Ignore the fat goal and intake, just eat fat to satiety. As the example given for an an "average man" in the first phase with 600 cal. of protein, it is only 900 cal. Of fat.
Read the "Keto is not a Free for all" link, and for more, then Dr Ted Naiman website Burnfat...(hit link below poster to find it). If I remember right, his estimate for dietary fat when you have body fat to lose is even lower.
