I got a consultation from a friend - she gave me my starting macros
165 C, 160 P, 45 F
But when I go to customize the settings, it says 171g carbs and I only get to change the percentage (40%) - any way I can change the grams??
Please help!

Yep. Percentage of intake.
out of 2000 (round number) of calories, 40% are X, 40% Y, 20% Z. (or whatever).
It's ballpark.0 -
Actually there is a way to set your macros in grams on MFP. Send me a PM if you want help doing so0
