I was just curious about this.. I really dont know much about it.. was just using a calculation from a website on LowCarbing.. thanks for sharing all the opinions! i was impressed to see how many responses there were to this thread..

I had read on that site that 58% of protein we eat is converted to carbs, and that our brains need 45 grams of carbs a day on top of what our bodies need (weight x .36).. im no doctor so i thought id ask some of you 'experts'.. im feeling alright, sleepy more often than id like to be, but ive lost quite a bit for being on this a month (more than average i believe).. i suspect im in the '3/4 week stall' that i read so much about.. not concerned about it, but thought i should know if im getting too little protein

my average (including today which was a no dairy day and for which dinner has not been plugged in yet) for the last month::

calories: 1663
Fat: 131 74%
Sat: 53 30%
Poly: 13 7%
Mono: 29 16%
Carbs: 21 4%
Fiber: 5 0%
Protein: 90 22%

my average for the last 2 weeks:

calories 1587
Fat: 120 1076 73%
Sat: 47 422 29%
Poly: 9 82 6%
Mono: 26 231 16%
Carbs: 19 53 4%
Fiber: 6 0 0%
Protein: 84 335 23%

I know my fiber is low.. but for the past week my average was over 8.. today it is 14 so far.. for a few days im cutting out dairy products.. i think i eat way too much which of course is bringing my fat % up and my % of protein down slightly..

not bad overall though.. what do you think?
