For those that don't know or haven't seen previous articles, there's a way to get pie charts with your macro percentages, as well as track net carbs (total less fiber) using MFP:

You just follow the simple instructions here. I've done it on all my computers and it works well for my diary.

It will leave "NaN" for 'net carbs' for any diary that doesn't have 'fiber' tracked, fyi.

    Wow, thanks for the info! I've been a bit annoyed that I can't show net carbs. Even when I first started MFP, I left for a few months after seeing the macro goal defaults and not knowing that I could change them. I was FED UP with the high carb/low fat bs and that was my initial take from MFP. Glad I returned and took some time to play around.

    I will try the instructions at home and hope that I can get it to work. I'm not super savvy with the computer stuff though. :(
