Go into 'goals' and edit your numbers there. Don't follow the 'guided setup'

The guided setup is completely wacked.0

And to set up MFP better for lchf, check the macro scripts on this page:

Good luck with your keto journey!

Best of luck! Definitely do the keto calculator at ketocalculator.com. Figure your macros, based on the percentages you wish to achieve, and plug them into your mfp daily goals. The guidelines from mfp aren't geared to low carb, at all. So you have to change them to what works for you!
Welcome too! You've found a group of wonderful people here who are willing to help!
