Hi All- I'm new to the Keto diet and I'm trying set up my fitness pal

Hi Everyone,

I could use some tips on setting up my keto goals. I've already gone to the custom feature and input my ratios, but I'm not sure that's all that I have to input. Any ideas? My ratios are 5% carbs, 15% protein, 80% fats. I'm 168lbs and I'd like to get to 150lbs. lol these last 18 pounds have been difficult to move.

    Hi Leala,
    I'm following the Keto way.
    I've downloaded the keto script so i get a cool pie chart at the bottom of my food diary with my macro percentages. My ratios are 5-10% carbs, 25-30% proteins and the rest fat. I usually try to make sure that my grams of fat and protein are the same.

    I'm 70kg, trying to lose the last 5kg. Fingers crossed I can achieve my goal in the next 4 months.

    80% fat, 15% protein, and 5% carbs is a bit extreme even for Keto... I have mine set to 65% fat, 30% protein, and 5% carbs.
