Very noob-y question but what are macros and where are they shown on the app? I've seen them mentioned loads in the forums.

Macros = Macronutrients (carbohydrates, protein and fat) you can modify them through your goals section0

go into you food diary, when you set it up with your height weight etc MFP would have set out your macros for based on what you want to achieve IE 1lb per loss perr week. Your can track all sorts of macros the main ones people tracks are calories, carbs, fat, sodium, sugar and fibre there are others it up to you which ones you pick0
