Ratios

The general rule of thumb for Atkins is approx. 70% Fat 25% Protein and 5% carbs but some people UP the protein a bit if they are lifting weights.

Thanks for the info. It seems such a high fat %. I seemed to have stalled loosing and thought this may be the problem. Guess I need to look somewhere else.

Thanks
