    13 pounds over three months is great progress! It's a rate of about a pound per week.

    As long as you stay within your calorie goal, it does not matter what percentage of your calories come from fat/carbs/protein. Personally, I try to keep my net carbs at around 40-45% and fill the rest of my daily calories with fat and protein, but that is because I feel better when my protein and fat percentages are higher.
