Hi, I'm a 55 year old man and trying to get a grip on a few years of excess and get this body back to shape. I am working with a trainer who got me to subscribe to this app. I'm on a prescribed macronutrient diet and my biggest struggle so far is figuring out how and what to eat.

    Welcome! That doesn't make sense. Macronutrients are the nutrients that provide energy - fat, protein, carbs. Your diet is what you eat. You can eat what you want. It's actually a good idea, because the ultimate decision of what and how much to eat, is yours. But if someone has prescribed a diet for you, they would have told you what and how much to eat. Go back and ask for clarifications and specifications, or better still, ditch it.
