Question Ratio??

I've read about a "ratio" several times while on this site - just curious what exactly the ratio is. Is it part of a specific LC plan? I understand it to have something to do with fat/protein/carb.

Could someone enlighten me?

Thanks!!

Hi, Melissa. I think people are just using it the way you would use it in general conversation. Each plan has a slightly different ratio of carbs to protein to fat. It's dividing up the pie, so to speak, among those three things.

Each plan is different. There's 30-40-30 (carbs-protein-fat), etc.
