How is it possible to get all my macros in and even go over and still have 400 calories left over

    dodgy database entry most likely.

    Are you looking at percentages or grams?

    On some days I hit my MACROS and still have 200+ calories. I don't sweat my daily calories (Over/under) when counting MACROS as they average out in the long run. I try to be within the range of (+/-) 5g for Fats and (+/-) 10g for Carbs and Protein. If you are MACRO Counting the most important element is hitting your Macros with healthy foods and not processed, sugary, high sodium foods.

    If you are hitting the macros by gram and are 200+ cals off, that sounds like bad entries and I'd double check them.
