in Getting Started
I am on the Ideal Protein with a lot of success. I've got about another month to go until I start the maintenance phase. At the same time, I'm learning about My Fitness Pal and plan to use this especially when I'm in phase 4 of the diet. I'm wondering if this can be used during Phase 1-3 of Ideal Protein. If so, how do I determine the recommended grams of protein, carbs, and fat since I know that it's different for Ideal Protein dieters than for the rest of the dieters? Thank you in advance!

    MFP is not super user friendly for IP users like us. As IP is based off of net carbs, and is so low calorie, there's almost no way in phase 1 and 2 to be able to "complete" your diary. Also, Ip has done everything for us in terms of calculating what nutrients we need, so the guesswork has been taken out. You can still use MFP for tracking your food though - I just wouldn't worry about the particular macros until you get to phase 3/4.
