Default Re: 65% calories from fat..NOT 65% of diet is fat...

Well glad you're figuring it out. Did you order the book? It an be bought fairly cheap.
Yes 65% of calories from fat. So since there are so much more calories in fat than in protein when it comes to grams we pretty much eat equal amounts of the two.

There will be nothing about this in the book though. Atkins just said to eat food till we are full and limit our carbs. Which is kind of cool too.

If you take riboflavin (a B vitamin) the urine will often be somewhat yellow as the excess is expelled that way. Nothing to worry about though.
