It's hard especially since presumably her dad is not a woman where you could tell where her body type might be coming from, eh ? I just wanted to add to the discussion that it is widely accepted that being a a pear is usually a good indication of a heart-protective body type, so even if aesthetically it looks out of sync with current ideas about what women should look like, healthwise cellulite and being a pear are just dandy. I kind of wonder if she needs more protein, not less - 45g seems a little low - and less fat than maybe is good for you? I just am thinking of this because people who are sensitive to carbs often develop a "wheat belly" and narrow hips. She might not need low carb as much as you do given her body type?
