I am new to this and really like this site. But I am confused about what PRECENTAGE (%) each catagory should be. The system automatically puts in a % for me. Is this the reccomented amount? It looks like you can change it and for instance makes Carbs lower and Protien higher. Does this also change weight loss? Am I getting too technical? HELP!

That depends on your needs and a lot of different factors. I had to adjust mine to get more proteins because of workouts. That is a base line but listen to your body and adjust according to your personal needs. God Bless, Brenda0
