Default I'd like an idea of percentages...

I haven't read TSP yet but am trying to get a good handle on things before I go out and buy another book. I have been doing Atkins successfully now for 8 wks. along with husband and teen daughter. We've all done well and I am only 4 lbs. away from goal. I tend to be a numbers oriented person and am curious what the percentage of fat, protein, and carbs should/would be on a typical day of TSP. I have already been tracking this on fitday and wonder how much of an adjustment I would have to make from Atkins. I'm currently 65-70% fat, 25-30% protein, and 4-10% carbs (usually around 4-6). TSP from what I can tell is about the same with carbs a little higher and fat maybe a bit lower. Am I getting it? I'm trying to figure out if this will be a smooth transition before buying the book for the specifics. I tried CAD for about 4 days. After the second day all I could think about was my next reward. And that was going to send me back to carboland for sure! Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
