What has everyone set their percentages to in the 'Goal' area of MFP?

I have my carbs % at 10% but not sure what to set Fat and Protein at?

How does this sound:

Carbs: 10%
Protein: 50%
Fat: 40%

I started following Low Carb again last Thursday so am keeping to about 20g carbs at the moment

    I have mine set to the specifications given to me by my Endocrinologist, but they are not based on percentage...

    I set mine at 10% Carbs, 30% Protein, and 60% Fat. This combination has been successful for me in the past.

    If you are following Atkins LC plan...I have set my fats at 65% Protein at 30 and carbs at 5%.....you need higher fats for Atkins. it is a higher fat, moderate protein, low carb plan!
