What is too high? I consume 70% or more of my calories from fat, and about 20% from protein, and 5% carbs. Do you know that high fat with low carb equals weight loss? Protein they say to have moderate, but you want more fat than protein. For more info on this visit www.dietdoctor.com/lchf. Deborah 

Deborah, I think it depends on individual goals. I (loosely) aim for 45% carbs, 30% protien and 25% fat. Zeb seems to be aiming to get most his calories from protien and you obviously aim to get most your calories from fat. I think whether you want more fat then protien or carbs is dependent on your personal diet and life style aim. Zeb's been sticking within a few pounds of his goal, so he's obviously doing a great job =)  

What is too high? That's a great question, actually. Like Calyn said, it depends on your goals. I'm doing a half-assed LCHF diet where I'm trying to hit around 106 gm fat, 185 gm protein, and get a slight calorie deficit. I'm trying to drop a little weight, and gain muscle. I'm calling this diet "half-assed" because I'm really not adhering to the strict LCHF tenets - I'm not getting my fat from the best source foods, and I'm not going crazy trying to limit carbs. It's really more of an IIFYM approach, so I can't really say it's LCHF. That said, it got me un-stuck from the upper 180's, and I'm now down about 5 pounds from when I started it. I think I can get another 5, just doing this. After that, I probably need to start looking at better foods to continue losing. But losing weight is not my primary goal - gaining muscle is becoming much more important.
