I am starting to follow this lifestyle. What do you all have your macros set at? I know there's "no one size fits all" but, I just need a starting point. I'm set at 65%fat/25%protein/10%carbs. Do you all think this is at least a good starting point?

Feel free to friend me as I'd love all the help I can get.

Thanks!

    Agree with this! When I started mine were set at 70F, 15P, 15C. I have changed my macro %'s twice since then and now they are at 80F, 10P, 10C.
