Fat/carbs/protein/etc.

Options
I may be missing something, but what is the point of knowing how much of our logged calories are coming from fat/carbs/protein unless we know what the target rates for these ought to be? How do we determine that? Is that just a personal decision, or is there some guidance about that on this site?

    you can customize your own amounts of macronutrients (fat, carbs, and protein) in the goals section, under customize my own...that is what i do because i follow a certain ratio :flowerforyou:
