bmwklove16

I have begun macro counting, but honestly I need some more advice about it. Like in regards to it in any way possible. I would love to hear y'alls input on it. I will literally take any advice. Things that have helped you. The most difficult thing about it etc. Thanks Y'all.

Hi:

I started logging on my food for one month and finding my baseline (a.k.a. where I am with proteins, carbs and fats).
Second, was where do I want to be ?
Third, finding the food/recipes/ snacks that will help me with the macro goals
Good luck in your healthy journey

I only really count my overall calories for the day and track my protein which I make as a priority (1g per 1lbs of lean body weight). Carbs and fats just fall into place around this. I do try to eat mainly slow digesting carbs though and I am conscious about fibre and micronutrients, but don't specifically track these.
