Do you do custom or guided calorie goals?

I customized mine. I wanted more protein and fiber and less fat

Custom, but I'm on a low carb diet, so I have to.

Custom. I know I need more fiber and protein than what they have as a basis. I also did less fat.

I follow the guided CALORIES, but certainly customized my macro nutrients, and some micro's. I wanted 0.5 grams per pound of body weight as a goal for my daily protein, that meant bumping to 30% of my calories for protein. Sodium I decreased to 2000mg (the new recommendations if you read them (The guidelines are aimed at those who are 51 and older, all African-Americans and anyone suffering from hypertension, diabetes, or chronic kidney disease. These people specifically need to reduce daily sodium intake to little more than 1500 mg with the rest of the population at 1 teaspoon or about 2,300 milligrams of sodium per day. ) I don't fall into any of the specific categories but I don't mind cutting my sodium. I no longer add salt to anything, and since i've cut back on the amount of processed food I'm eating I get way less most of the time anyway.
Fiber goal is up to I think 35 or 40 grams per day as a goal, not that I get there regularly but I should, and I have the wheat bran and psyllium to do so.

I chose to do the guided calorie goals just because I didn't really know what I should be aiming for.

How do you adjust them for more protein less fat? thanks!

how do you custom tweak the guides? I have tried but I dont seem to be able to do it. I am a bit useless with the computer.

to customize your macro's click
My Home... goals... change goals... custom/ guided... custom is what you'll need to change your ratios, IE I use 40% carb, 30% fat, 30% protein 2000mg sodium 40grams fiber

And don't for get to save, a silly simple thing but i frustrate my self by forgetting

I follow MFP's calorie goal but definitely customize all other aspects.

MFP's default for protein (15%) of total calories is the bare minimum and in my opinion it's way too low. Protein is needed to help minimize muscle loss when operating at a calorie deficit. I have mine set to 50/25/25% (carbs, protein, fat) but will soon increase protein to 30% and lower carbs to 45% as my strength training program kicks into gear.

MFP's default for fiber is dreadfully low. Aim for at least 25g per day. MFP's default for sodium is way too high. Aim for 2,000mg or less per day; if you have high blood pressure 1,500-1,800mg is better.

If you have underlying health issues, other tweaks might to in order. For example, a lower cholesterol or sugar goal.

I'm seriously considering custom. I have been loosing weight faster than my goal. To me that means that my base calorie consumption is higher that MFP suggests. I'm not very interested in turbo fast weight loss, more in getting a sustainable lower weight than now. I did get a banner that now when I have lost weight so fast my goal would be adjusted but it was adjusted DOWN, not up (reflecting my new weight). I am really frustrated by this.

If I add to my averega calorie intake per day (average weight loss per day -average weight loss per day according to goal)*3550cal/pound-(average calories under calorie goal per day) I guess I should get something more accurate?

I customized mine to follow the guidelines in Tom Venuto's book, Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle. I needed more calories, more protein, less carbs, and less fat.
