    How are your sugar (and some people don't count the sugar in whole foods like fresh fruit), fiber, and salt intakes? The reason I ask is that if you are eating well, I wouldn't be too concerned about being under in fat (unless it's extreme...you do need some good fat) and carbs. You may want to adjust the goal setting.....I can't remember what the default is, but I changed mine to 40% carbs, 30% protein, and 30% fat. I know that some people go as low as 20% fat.

    As always, a quick talk with your MD about any plan is a good idea.
