If I choose to adjust my calorie intake, does My Fitness Pal automatically adjust my nutritional intake, or do I have to do it?

    It will adjust your macros. As I understand it, micros are based on RDA (which is based on what the "average" person needs), so those won't adjust. But it's difficult to dangerously OD on most micros from food sources alone, the way taking an extra multi-vitamin could.

    MFP will automatically adjust the macro amounts based on calories. It assumes each macro as a percentage of calories.
