The macros that matter are protein, fat, and carbohydrates. If you put your calorie goal in to MFP it will give you recommended amounts for these three.
I suggest tracking your fiber instead of sugar.

A handy rule of thumb at dinner is to fill up half your plate with vegetables and your protein is about the size of a deck of cards.
The rest is noise. Drink when you are thirsty. If you are jittery or have trouble sleeping limit coffee to your mornings. That's it.
If you follow these few tips for a month or so you may start caring about the others.0 -
