> What exactly do you mean by 'standard low fat diet'?

Sorry, I was referring to what has been the standard recommendation for losing weight and being healthy - low fat, low protein, high carb.

> Also you will never be fully satiated on any meaningful caloric deficit, 40-60g/fiber per day usually increases satiation

I disagree a million times over. I'm a 6'1" 190lb male who frequently cuts on 1700 calories and I can feel stuffed all day by consuming lots of lean protein and vegetables. For example two pounds of chicken breast each day would leave me absolutely stuffed with room for another 750 calories for carbs and fat.

I've never in my life heard anyone recommend "low fat, low protein, high carb" for losing weight and being healthy (as a maintenance diet for people without special needs like losing weight, sure, I've seen that.) Even 30ish years ago, while "low fat" was prominent, a focus on lean protein sources as a main source of calories was common. And, "low carb" to the extreme has been the common recommendation, in various forms, since the late 1990s.
