Should your macronutrients goal be set with your NET calorie goal? Or how much you are actually eating?

    I only apply mine to the actual amount of calories that I'm eating. If you're eating at a deficit, I wouldn't recommend adding back exercise calories or even acknowledging the new figures that MFP projects.

    bump again. Also... why does MFP only allow you to calculate based on your net goal? and as a ratio?
