Hello All

Is there an app available that suggests menu options according to desired macros??

Thanks in advance

    I believe Intent does this with their premium version. I use the free version for my meal plans, it has lots of great options and makes grocery shopping easy. I believe Eat This Much will also do this but I don’t use it enough to speak on that.

    Welcome to MFP @robertbaus

    I’m assuming you’re new at this. Why not spend a while focusing on the calories before you do the deep dive into macros?

    Learning the basics of weighing and logging can be challenging enough to start with.

    My philosophy, being obese, was “anything I eat is better than it was yesterday”. After I got my calories under control, I was able to consider macros.

    Another thing to consider is, each week change your daily view to weekly and have a quick look-see.

    I found along the way that if I looked at the weekly average, the macros actually weren’t too terribly off. It removed a lot of the pressure to hit those macros every. single. day.
