Macros

Options
Hi everyone!
I'm new to MFP and new to wanting to change the way I treat my body. I've heard and read a few things on here about macros, But I have no idea what that means or what they are, can someone please explain this to me??

    This is a great website, full of information and will help you calculate your macros based on what your goals are. Macro's are macronutrients. Other than calories, it matters what we eat ie. protein, carbohydrates, etc. Based on what you want to accomplish, how much of what you eat matters.
