How do I set my own macros and why should I set my own? Will it help me lose weight faster?

    No. A calorie deficit will help you lose weight. Your macro ratios can affect your body comp however.

    Never saw the point in being anal about macros. Burn more calories than you consume and you'll lose weight. Stay away from table sugar and processed foods as much as you can and eat a good variety of veggies, fruits, protein and fats.
