Today I made the effort to get in more protein... The problem is as I try to higher my protein intake, my carb/fat intake increases as well. I ate TUNA, and a couple EGGS and end the day 38% fat, 47% carbs, 15% protein. If only the protein could take some of the fat percentage.

My friend recommends fat free beef jerky for protein. I'm not really interested in using protein shakes, and protein bars are too expensive. How can I pad my protein?

Also, another question, how much saturated fat is acceptable in a fat loss diet. I know it's not good, and you should eat as little as possible, but of the three sub-fat categories, I find saturated to be the highest just about everyday. Not extremely high, but higher than poly and mono... for example, past couple days (charted below)

Tuesday:
Fat: 80  723  38%
  Sat: 20  183  10%
  Poly: 6  52  3%
  Mono: 8  71  4%

Monday:
Fat: 41  372  20%
Sat: 13  113  6%
  Poly: 4  37  2%
  Mono: 5  45  2%

Sunday:
Fat: 43  389  21%
  Sat: 17  149  8%
  Poly: 4  40  2%
  Mono: 9  83  4%

Not all of your fat is listed there. If you eat clean, you're not going to get any trans fat, so all non-saturated fat is either poly or mono. It doesn't look like you're eating too much saturated fat.

eggwhites, cottage cheese (i get fat free), tuna, chicken breast don't have much fat and only the cottage cheese contains a few grams of carbs.

for a fat loss diet, your total amt of calories will determine how much weight you lose,not the amount of fat in the diet. from a health standpoint, fats should be up to 30% of calories.
