1400 calorie diet - what % fat, cabs and protein etc.

Membership

When it comes to weight loss, some people are more sensitive to macro-nutrient ratios (%carbs/ %protein/ %fat) than others. For some it is simply just a a matter of reducing calories. While others do better on higher monounsaturated fats, lower fats, lower or higher carbs or lower or higher protein diets. (see references http://www.thinnergene.com/about-thinnergene/the-science-behind-thinnergene/). Bottom line if you are having problems losing weight on a lower calorie diet then you might want to try different ratios to see what works for you. A dietitian or other health provider who specializes in nutrition can help you with this.
