I have lost 18lbs since 4/15/19 eating A Keto / low carb diet. I consistently miss the fat macro 75% by 10%+\- for those that are hitting it, what fat content foods are you using? Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

    You might want to check out this website. https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/how-to-eat-more-fat
    The idea behind keto is to eat enough protein & fat to be satisfied. If I don't exactly hit what is programmed in MFP, I personally don't stress about it. Other people may have a different view on that.

    Thanks for the link. I’m losing without hitting MFP %ages also. I guess if it ain’t broke...

    If there is something wrong with what I wrote, it would have been more helpful if you linked to a particular thread rather than a whole message board/group. The dietdoctor.com site, to which I linked, is also a link at the top of the Keto group.

    Don't fix what is working. What you are doing is obviously working.

    I interpreted LizardQueen to be responding to the fact that OP had not gotten many responses, so was directing him to a place where he might get more. Not insulting, and trying to be helpful. I guess no good deed goes unpunished, sadly.

    Eh, ok. I can see how it could be read that way. Maybe.
