I’m new to the idea of tracking macros and want to make sure I start with the right goals in mind. My target is 50/30/20, but the targets in grams don’t match those ratios at all. Can someone explain why that is?

    What do you mean?

    Protein and Carbs are 4 calories per gram, Fat is 9 calories per gram. As you log, the numbers appear.
