I would strongly suggest that you go back to the book which your profile says you have read and read it again. While there are many theories about amounts of protein & fats and how many calories, I don't think any of that is in the book. At least, I don't remember it from my last reading.

Just follow the plan.
Atkins has no maximum nor minimum amount of protein. (Protein Power has a minimum.)

Atkins doesn't say to count calories or eat a certain amount per body weight. He just says to eat "enough to satisfy hunger" but not to stuff yourself.

Atkins books only count carbs.

So don't stew about these numbers yet. Be interested in the theories but if you're losing, you are doing just fine. Just follow what's in the book and see how you do.
