Does MYFITNESSPAL adjust my Macros daily?

I’m trying to do 40% protein, 30% carbs, and 30% fat. I’ve noticed that my daily goals in grams is different every day. Why is that??

You are logging your exercise which in turn gives you more calories. Your macros make up your calories, so they would also go up in grams, but the overall % of the whole would stay the same. Your macros make up your calories...1 gram carb = 4 calories, 1 gram protein = 4 calories, 1 gram dietary fat = 9 calories.

Thanks that is helpful. Is there any way, besides disconnecting my tracker, to make my goals the same everyday?

Not really. MFP is designed to give you a weight loss target without any exercise. Exercise is unaccounted for in your activity level and thus not accounted for in your calorie target. Not accounting for exercise with additional calories can lead to an overly large and unhealthy calorie deficit. Part of what MFP's intentions are here is to help you understand your overall calorie needs which ultimately is beneficial in maintenance.

The only other way is to use the TDEE method for which you would customize your calorie target on MFP. Using the TDEE method you include an estimate of your weekly exercise along with your day to day hum drum in your activity level and thus get more calories to begin with. In this case you wouldn't want your tracker connected because you would be double dipping.
