Do you use MFP's guidelines for carbs or do you adjust them? If you do, what do you set them to?

    I have my carbs set at 30% due to insulin resistance caused by PCOS.. 40% protein and 30% fat

    10 or 15% I can't remember. I don't pay much attention to them anymore. All my carbs come from veg, fruits, and dairy.

    ^^^ :laugh:

    I really only pay attention to my total calories, if I'm over or under on my carbs or protein on a daily basis I don't worry about as it works out on average.
