    MFP automatically assigns 65% carbs you can change them to suit your needs (go to goal then customize) . 40-50% is considered moderate carb and below 40% is low carb below 25 is very low carb.

    They take your total calories allowed for the day and give you a % of that to carbs.
    A normal weight person usually should have between 55-65% carbs in their day.
