Mine are 30 carbs 35 protein 35 fat. My fat is always a bit higher. You can change them at the goals tab. About 1 gram per lb if lean body mass for protein. .5-.8 grams per lb of lean mass for fats. Carbs are remainder. The group eat train progress has much better explanation.0

Weight loss takes a whole lot of trial & error to find what works for you.
I use MFP's default protein & fiber goals as minimums and ignore carbs & fats. But if you ask 100 MFPers, you'll get 100 different answers.
