    Well, I watch my macros, so I suppose I'm using them. More specifically, I watch my protein macro to make sure it's high enough, because that's where I usually have problems. I let fat and carbs fall where they will as long as I'm in my calorie range. I've never had a problem getting enough fat in my day. It works for me.

    If your question is really who is following the TDEE method and eating an optimal macronutrient split of daily defined calories and likes that method? Then yes, I have been doing this now for a little better than a year and don't see me doing any other way.

    If your question meant something else, then please elaborate further.

    When I was logging i tracked my macros in an effort to teach myself how to eat a more balanced diet. I don't track anymore and I'm sure I'm not bang on, but I'm close enough...some people are over the top on the macro management IMHO.
