I was just wondering, I set my saturated fat goal to 9 grams ( DASH diet guidelines ) but when I look at my nutrition stats, my goal changes. Does it change by percentage of calories? Or percentage of total fat grams maybe?
It's no big deal really. I know my goal, even though I fail at meeting it pretty often. Just curious really.

It changes by your exercise calories, so as your fat grams change the percentage of what you now have as your saturated fats will change.1
