I have been kinda keeping my eye on my macros the last few weeks. Anyone used marco counting to lose a significant amount of weight like 150 pounds +? With that much to lose I don't know if at this time it is important to watch the macros? Would love some advise.

Optimizing your macros can help move things along a bit faster (as long as you are also staying within an appropriate calorie range...that is the biggest priority). I would shoot for 40/40/20 (protein/carb/fat).
