I don't pay attention to fat. I try to get at least 120 grams of protein and less than 50 grams (total) carb and just eat the fat that goes with it.
Today i only had about 37% from fat, but I've gone as high as 65-70% fat. My calories are almost always around 1600-1800/day. I've been loosing an average of 1 pound a week.
I'm not looking for quick loss, I'm looking for good health. I have just over 20 pounds to go (I've lost over 70) and if it takes another year, so be it.
My goal is health....and on the plan I'm on I have seen an improvement in my cholesterol levels, blood sugars, etc. I've also found that chronic problems I've had for many years have either improved or resolved.
My feeling is do what works for you....and lots of protein works for me!!
