Low Carbers- Calroies/ Fat/ Protein Ranges??

I have always had the most success and personally feel my body functions better on low carb. I typically stay under 25 net carbs a day. However some days I feel like my fat is too high (60g usually from eggs, cheese, avocado, meats, and salad dressing) and I am not sure if I eat too much Protein (100+ grams) sometimes where my body is burning the protein and not the fat. So I have 3 questions for you low carbers...

1. How many calories do you typically eat in a day?

2. How many grams of fat do you eat in a day?

3. How much is too much protein?

1. I eat about 1100 calories a day

2. I make sure no more than 20% of daily calories are from fat

3. Not sure how much Protein is too much, however I am sure to eat at least 60g of protein a day

For the record, I don't do low carb. I have no more than 125g of carbs per day. It works well for me.

1. 1200 calories

2. About 30g of fat

3. About 70g protein
