    Do you have questions about macros (or MFP in general)? Depending on your goals, it may be best to ignore macros at the start. We need more info (if you want). Good luck.

    If your goal is weight loss in general, focus on calories first and foremost. Get the hang of calories before worrying about macros.

    Macros (protein, fat and carbs) are for satiety, health, and fitness goals. If you are eating less (a reasonable number of calories) and find you are hungry....tweaking macros can help. If you have a medical issue, a registered dietician can point you in the right direction.
