Hi...

I was also very afraid of getting my fat intake up to 65-70% after being on a very low fat diet for so long...trying to lose weight!! Ha, ha...now I can tell you, I'm convinced. The food pyramid is completely upside down...forget about it, you will not get sick, you'll get healthier.

Your carbs should come from nutritious veggies as much as possible, and with TONS of water every day and good supplements, you'll be in better shape than ever.

Also, you seem to be losing pretty well! So you're not doing anything wrong...but every time you scramble some eggs, put that butter in the pan...olive oil on your salads, niceoily fish for dinner...yummy!

Your calories will be up there, and your percentages will be more effective for better fat loss. Good luck...keep up the good job!
