ok I'll try 40 30 30. I'm not sure what my lean body mass is. but I've been going over on fat both days I've been trying this, so hopefully now I'll be under. either way I've lost a bunch of weight so that's good! just need to feel a bit more satiated. I'd say I also start to freak out in the afternoon and not want to…

yes I believe those percentages were what I was first given but the carbs scared me.. well my main goal is more to lower my body fat percentage; I don't really care how many lbs I weigh. and to tone my tummy. all my weight is in my tummy.. my body fat is 33% but I've lost 45lbs since January just by eating healthier and…

I had a hard time with googling and using macros calculators :( I suppose I'll just try this out and see how it goes..I hope I don't gain fat.

thank you all. this is definitely getting a bit confusing but I'm seeing that I should focus on hitting my protein and fat and let the carbs fall where they fall which is fine I just need to figure out how much protein and fat I should have...I can try and work in grams but I've always found percentages easier for myself…
