I eat less fat on PPLP, but I am a *long* way from low fat, or moderate fat. I tend to get about 60% of my calories from fat, though I have no targets I'm trying to meet -- it just works out that way. I couldn't possibly eat 80% calories from fat if I get the minimum protein requirement in every day, but many people are quite successful doing that.

Yeah - my fat intake typically works out in that neighborhood, too. If I tried to do higher fat, my calories would be just too darn high for my BMR and activity level.
