Macro partitioning

Macronutrient composition (low-carb vs. low-fat) has no significant difference on weight loss outcomes when total caloric intake and adherence are controlled.

Don't obsess over whether you should be low-carb or low-fat. The most important factor is that you eat fewer calories than you burn. You can achieve this with almost any dietary pattern (Mediterranean, low-carb, low-fat) as long as you stick to it and maintain a calorie deficit.
