Carb/Fat/Protein settings (maybe the wrong place???)

Hi!

I've been on MFP on and off for a few years now. The last time I was using it regularly I know I changed my Carb/fat/protein ratios.....but I don't know if when MFP started offering premium services these were reset :/

Can anyone who definitely hasn't changed theirs (in 'goals') check to see if the % are the same as mine? I want mine to be set at average or standard ratios now, and don't know if they are or not!!! Mine are:

Carb (50% - mine is 163g)
Fat (30% - mine is 43g)
Protein (20% - mine is 65g)

I realise actually the g is arbitrary unless you have the same goals lol but the % should work anyway

    Yes, your numbers match the default setting for 1304 calories.

    That is the default numbers. I changed mine to reflect more protein, less carbs....

    Yeah I did the same a couple of years ago, I don't remember resetting them to default but I'm glad they are :)

    50/30/20 is the default. I change it to 40/30/30, since my calorie goal is 1200/day, I usually feel better with a little more protein.
