Im trying to figure out the best ratio to lose weight.

myfitness pal app says it should be:

Carb = 55%
Fat = 30%
Protein = 15%

Im currently at (by lunchtime)

Carb = 18%
Fat = 24%
Protein = 58%

I've started protein shakes (reading that these are optimum for meal replacements), veggies, lean meats, cut processed foods. Feeling sort of dizzy. With research i thought i was supposed to be higher proteins, cutting carbs.

Anyone have the correct advise?

    I previously had mine at the MFP setting, but have since changed it to 55/30/15. carb/protein/fat.

    I figure no way my fat should be higher than my protein intake, so I have since changed it officially in settings, but based on my diet, I was following the 55/30/15 plan for the last month, hence why I feel I have lost inches, no pounds, but I am fine with inches, some of my jeans fit a lot better since

    Goodluck
