Ketosis is the absense of carbs, not the presence of fat or protein.
Although fat gives us energy in a Keto diet, many of us have fat reserves on our bodies. Some have reached their goals and don't, they need the fat.
Personally, I always go over my protein amount and am under my fat amount. It works for me, so I guess it depends on what works for your body.
I hope this makes sense, I find sometimes the macros throw people off.
PS: 137 lbs down on a LC/Keto diet that is high in protein.
