What are all of your macros set at? Carbs are at 20g (5%), but don't know what to set my protein and fat to! :frown:

I have my fat macro set at 60%. That's the primary one I focus on hitting, aside staying within my limit for carbs, which during induction I kept at 20g without any netting; and in my own personal modified long term "induction", I would keep at 20 (netting out only fiber).
I think some shoot for a 65% fat macro, but that is something I'm unable to maintain.0 -
Here's a low carb calculator based on how many carbs you are currently eating. http://www.phlaunt.com/lowcarb/DietMakeupCalc.php
I'm on maintenance carbs and do 25% carbs, 25% protein, 50% fat. When I was on induction I did 5% carbs, 50-60% fat and the rest protein.0 -
I currently have mine set to 5% carbs, 15% protein, and 80% fat. I only hit the full 80% fat on some days, but at a weekly glance, I am usually pretty close with all the macros.0

Thanks for that link! Its quite interesting.
Personally I've had my macros set at 10% carbs, 30% proein & 60% fat for the last 3 weeks & have been stalled for over a week so yesterday I switched to 5%/25%/70%. We'll see how it goes.0 -
Mine is 5% carb
65% fat
And 30% protein
I just played around with it until it carbs where I wanted it and protein and them of course the rest went into fats0
