So, why do the goal numbers change on a daily basis? I must have been absent on that day!

    The % should stay the same, but the exact grams that % is will change if your calories increase from logged exercise or adjustments.

    Example:
    30% protein
    30% of 2000 = 600/4 = 150 g
    30% of 1800 = 540/4 = 135 g
    30% of 1600 = 480/4 = 120 g

    That makes perfect sense! Thank you.
