Was there a reason this was unstickied? I refer people to it all the time, and now it's getting buried in the list.
Yes. We have too many stickes so we've consolidated them to the "important posts" thread which is basically the master sticky.
Ooh gotcha. I'll start referring people to that thread also.0 -

0.35g of fat per lb of total body weight as a minimum target
Is it intention or error that you use lean body mass to calculate protein & total body weight for fat?
If I take .35g per total, then I would eat over 70 g of fat a day & that's almost 50% of my total daily calories.
Is that really right?0 -

That is correct, with the caveat stated in the OP that is assumes you do not have a significantly high body fat. If it is nearly 50% of your intake, I would look at whether your intake is set correctly.0 -
