how many grams of fat can I consume in a day and not exceed 30 percent of my calories from fat?

That would depend on how many calories you consume each day. On a 1500 calorie diet, 30% would be 450. On a 2000 calorie diet 30% would be 600. Figure out how many calories you consume, then multiply that number by .3 to see how many fat calories you are allowed.

Calculate how many fat grams a day it takes to maintain   your weight find out from your doctor or dietition. Pick up a booklet telling calories and fat grams of foods at the supermarket. Look up and write down fat grams of everything you eat, once you find out how many fat grams you will let yourself take in a day. Keep that number under the number allowed for the day. Get on the scale every morning, and write it on your calendar. This gives you control of your weight. Everything you take in takes a small decision. Make that decision right in the store before you buy things.

There are 9 cal/gm of fat or 9000 per kilogram.  Similarly if we are dealing with carbohydrate or protein then there are 4 calories per gram or 4000 per kilogram.

Well not quite...\n\nThe following facts are things that you need to first understand.\n1 gram of fat contains 9 calories\n1 gram of carbohydrates and protein contains 4 calories\nThere is 454 grams in 1 pound.\n\nSo for the first question, 1 calorie is equal to 1 fat calorie.  Like someone else said no difference.  Its a unit of energy/heat.  The difference between 1 calorie of carbohydrate and 1 calorie of fat is that it take 1/4 of a gram of carbohydrate to generate 1 calorie and it takes 1/9 of a gram of fat to generate 1 calorie.\n\nFor the second question, it take 1 pound of fat generate 4086 calories.  454 grams / 1 pound  x  9 cal / 1 gram of fat = 4086.\n\nWhy is it not 3600 calories?  When you exercise, you are not only burning carbohydrates but also fat (sort of a simplification, alot of it depends of type of exercise, during of exercise, etc).  So when we say you need to burn 3600 calories to lose 1 lb this is making a reference to the fact that we are burning fat and carbohydrates.\n\nHope this help and understable.

Since bacon is mostly fat, about 7 calories per gram.  Animal fat in general - straight fat like lard - is 9 calories per gram.  30 grams per ounce.

It's not the calories. It's the fat you have to watch. You can eat 500 calories of veggies, or 500 calories of greasy fries. Which do you think is better?

Are you looking to lose weight? If so, I would highly advise against it. If you are that little and still wanting to lose weight, it sounds like you may have an eating disorder. Now at your current weight and activity level, I would say you could easily consume 2500 calories a day. You should consume at least 2000 to be healthy since you are not looking to lose weight (hopefully) and are very active. To lose much more weight and you put your health and life at risk.

Exercise an hour a day and limit your food intake to 500 calories less than you need. And three twenty-minute exercise sessions are more effective than one hour-long session. And consult your doctor

About 3500 calories per pound of fat.

Trim down to 1200-1400 calories a day and do 45 minutes of aerobic exercise a day.  It is dangerous to lose more than 2 pounds a week.  It is dangerous to eat fewer than 1200 calories a day.  Low carb diets were shown to be dangerous YEARS ago (they were a fad in the 1960s).  Carbs are the most important part of your diet and health.  If you are under 21, diets can be dangerous because your brain is still growing--see a doctor or nutritionist for advice..  If you are over 40 or have health problems, you should see a doctor before starting a weight loss plan.

1200 to 1500 per day, in balanced amounts of proten, carbohydrates and fat.

Human fat tissue contains about 87% lipids, which store about 9 kcal/g energy. Therefore, to lose 1 kg of body-fat tissue, the energy of about 870 g pure fat has to be used up, which corresponds to about 7800 kcal (32 MJ), that is one has to create a −7800 kcal deficit between energy intake and use. (In U.S. customary units, that is about 3500 kcal per pound.) \n\nTherefore  3Kg X 32 MJ/Kg X 1 s/103J X 1 hr/3600s = \n\n258.9 hours (assuming you are losing 3 Kg of body mass not water weight)

About 180 grams per day for a healthy man with a good diet living in a developed country.

Probably because in the developed world, it's extremely difficult to consume a diet that is too *low* in fat. RDAs are meant to ensure that you get enough of something, mostly vitamins and minerals, though there are also estimates for calorie count.\n\nIt is recommended that no more than 20% of your caloric intake come from fat. Most people shouldn't consume more than 70g of fat per day to maintain a healthy weight, though obviously it depends on your own physique. Some advocates of very low-fat diets try to limit their intake to below 30g per day.\n\nIncidentally, in the UK they do have labels showing the grams of fat, the calories from fat, and how much of your caloric RDA this represents.

It really depends on how much weight you want to loose. How much you already weigh doesnt really matter. Typically, the average calorie intake a day is 2,000.\n\nIf you are planning to lose between 10-15 pounds, cut back to 1,800 calories a day, until you lose the weight\n\nIf you are planning to lose 15-25 pounds, cut back to a 1,500 calories a day, until you lose the weight.\n\nIf you are planning to lose more than 25 pounds, cut back to 1,100 calories a day, until you lose the weight. \n\nIf a person is more than 20 pounds over weight, it might be a good idea to subract an extra 100 calories a day.\n\n\nThe most important thing to do is keep track of where you are getting those calores from. If you are getting your daily calorie intake form junk-food, thats not going to help. Try to fill up your calories on healthier food.
