    Calories - Carbs - Fat - Protein - Fiber - Sodium

    I always go over on sugar because of fruit, but don't worry about that. I'm always way under on sodium as I don't have a lot of processed food either, ditto for fat.

    Only ones I pay attention to are calories (obviously), carbs and protein.

    Just calories, fat, protein and carbs. If my blood tests start looking deficient in one thing or another, I'll start tracking the micros too.

    I just track the normal Calories Carbs Fat and Protein.
    I've never felt the need to track anything else as I haven't noticed any huge changes from when I used to eat meat to now a days.

    I track all my micros in a different program but on here I track my macros plus calcium and fiber. Though I might switch it out since I am always WAY over fiber. The only one I don't worry about it sugar since it includes natural sugars and just eating carrots would put me over. I try to keep my added/refined sugars low though.

    Now that I am starting to get my calories under control, I have added in checks on my Carbs and Protein. I need to start working on fiber because there are days where I can tell my body needs more, but I am trying to find the appropriate limit for my body. I keep a little bit of fish to help with iron and fatty acids, but hopefully will eliminate that soon as well.

    I sometimes switch the micro nutrients to iron, fiber, potassium, calcium..just to see if there's anything I need to pay attention to.
