I don't understand weight loss!! do i only need to worry about my total calories intake or should i also watch out how many g of carb and fat i take??

In addition to: healthy diet we need to factor in lifestyle and personal metabolism. How active are you? Please see your doc and create a food plan w/his/her guidance. Low carb works well for many people. Shanti. Focus on your health rather than the number on the scale.
