[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2187910, member: 506169"] I haven't ever done a Carnivore Way Of Eating although I have had a few Low Carb Higher Protein days - mostly when eating out with friends. But I always have at least some leafy green veg, berries or nuts. Regarding High Protein 70gms may be 'slightly higher protein' but definitely not 'High Protein' since that works out at around 280 Calories (Protein ah the same Calories per Gram as do Carbs (4). However 140gms of fat does sound High Fat since fat has 9 calories per 1gm. that would work out at around 67% of a 2000 calorie per day regime. Of course you may be eating a lot less that 2000 Calories per day because of Ideal Body Weight and a desire for weight reduction. Most meat is about 33% protein and for chicken breast (a very lean meat) most of the rest is water. Similarly a high fat hard cheese such as cheddar is again around 33% pure fat and 25% pure Protein. When I have a higher protein day then I am eating between 100gms and 150gms of Protein. On a High Fat day I may go as high as 200gms of fat though usually lower than that. [/QUOTE]
