My sister the skinny Beotch

Are the projections on here true?

Tracking Carbs/protein etc..
How is this calculated on this site as far as determining how much I should be eating per day. It appears that my carbs are VERY high (165 per day).. and then my fiber is very low (something like 30).. I dont get it?!?! Are there any better formula I should be using?? and if so.. how do I change it on here. THANKS!
