Can anyone make suggestions on how to properly hit the Macros? How many of each MacroNutrient should you be eating each meal? Or refer me to a website.

    If you go to Scooby's calorie calculator - http://scoobysworkshop.com/accurate-calorie-calculator/...

    enter your info and HOW MANY meals you want to eat per day...

    Towards the bottom, there's a breakdown calories and grams of protein, carbs, and fat you need per meal.

    Basic portion recommendations are 1/2-1/3 c of grains (if you eat them), 4-6 oz of lean protein, etc.

    For best results, get yourself a food scale and measuring cups, which helps with portion adjustment.
