Question

Fat %

Just wondering.... I can't remember if there is a certain amount of fat you shoot for in your diet each day. I am trying to stay under 30 carbs now (past induction state). Does anyone know? And what about protein grams? Mine run about 70 grams a day.

Thanks,

Peg

Hi Peg!

Generally, your percentage of calories from fat should be between 60 and 75% of your total, so for you it would look something like this:

Fat: 65%
Protein: 25%-30%
Carbs: 5-10%

Obviously, if you are getting more than 65% of your daily calories from fat, something else would decrease. HTH
