    Just enter it in the diary and it calculates it for you.

    The fat, protein,carbs -- they are set to default. After you enter it, you will see the numbers at the bottom of your food diary.
    (It takes a week or two to get used to logging and using the diary sometimes.)

    I find the easiest way to enter food is to scan the bar code then enter the amount of food i ate and mfp does all the work
