Hi...I'm new to IIFYm and I love it indeed..watched all youtubes about it and read many many sites also.I was on Dukan diet for one month or so and I lost pretty much weight (8 Kilos ~ 17.5 lbs) this is my pregnancy weight left over.
I started IIFYM 4 days ago and seems hard to manage the ratios C/P/F ...proteins were always hard to accomplish while hitting fats early in the day with only 2 boiled eggs

    Shoot for 1/3 of each macro. You'll be sure to get sufficient protein and fats. Don't worry much about if you hit carbs or not--protein and fats are more important.

    I am shooting for 45 30 25 C P F
    I hit proteins and fats daily with little carbs still vacant.
    but until now for 4 days after Dukan I gained 2 lbs...although I am 500 calories deficit.
    maybe my body is adjusting for introducing some Carbs after a very low carb diet

    How many calories are you eating if 2 eggs hits your fat goal? Probably not nearly enough...
