Default Plan suggestions & fat content

Hi there,

I've just recently started off on a low-carb diet but haven't yet decided on which one to go with. I don't eat any meats except seafood occaisionally and am lactose-intolerant. Any suggestions which ones might work best without me having to go out & buy all of the books?

Also, while I have managed to bring my carb counts down to around the 30 g a day range which is something I'm comfortable with as a strong tofu-consumer, I am unsure what % range my fat consumption should be at. I keep seeing people mentioning a strong relationship between protein & fat metabolization but don't know what proportion they should be consumed in.

Thanks in advance for any information and suggestions.

Regards.

Ella Mae

Welcome! Check out the link on your right "Which LC plan is right for me?". Might check the books out at the library, too before you make a purchase.

Good luck!
