Hiya all;
I am on Day 7 of Induction...and all my days, I have made it a point to make fat be at 70% to 75%.
I use Fitday.com
I simply enter the foods in, and the graph and chart show me the numbers. I recommend it highly.
Basically...the number of grams of fat is not what is important...it is the ratio.
I average 72% Fat/ 26% Protein/ and 2% carbs and my understanding is that THAT is great! Calories average around 2500 per day....and don't forget to subtract the fiber from the carb number to get those net carbs! After dinner, I simply look at my carb number and If I need a few more...which I almost always do...I eat something appropriate.
Use fitday.com and you can achieve this balance, with little effort, on a dailey basis. You can "play" with what foods to add and watch the numbers change for you, with one click! Sweet! Then you can plan your menu's in advance also...which makes it easier and less stressful to monitor what you are eating.
Good luck to all and best wishes;
Jake
