was messing about on goals on diary and have lost them , but got me thinking what do i need to set them at????

I use 40c, 30p, 30f as my custom split. It works out pretty well in giving me enough protein (I think MFP is a bit low) and adequate carbs for energy.

I use the 40, 30, 30. Seems to work the best for me!

40/40/20 Carbs/Protein/Fat is what I have mine set for

I've never felt better than when I was eating "The Zone", which is 40% Carb, 30% Protein, 30% Fat. So I have mine set at that, I'm getting back into a "stricter Zone" this week to try to kick-start things!

Me too.

40/40/20 here too xx

i'd like to say that i agree with almost everyone in here

40/30/30 is a really good place to start and you can always tweak it from there! i was on 55/30/15 for a bit and that worked for my hunger but not for my weight loss so i dropped my carbs lower and i started losing again.


whenever you change something, make sure to only change one variable at a time and give yourself a couple weeks at LEAST to react to the change. then you can evaluate and either keep it, or change something else till you get the results you want

Thanks! This info really helped me too. I just changed mine to 40/30/30

Yes...you can change them
Select My Home > Goals > Change Goals > Custom > Continue > then change the percentage here from the drop down for each one > then select Change Goals at the bottom of the screen to set it
