When I entered my profile , In my macros I have 50% carbs . I find that a lot , thinking protein should be more then carbs ? Am I thinking wrong here ?? I haven't followed the app to actually see a difference but want to try it out . Thanks

nothing wrong with carbs being 50% - I take it close to that - my ratio is about 50 C/25P/25F and I'm down 12lbs0

I have mine at 50c/30f/20p.
I was told I needed the carbs because of breastfeeding. But at the end of the day when I complete my diary I'm around 30/50/15.0 -
Macros depend on your goal.
Mine right now are 50P/30F/20C. But that's only temporary. I could never do 20C for a long time.0
