Help with 30%carbs, 35% protein, 35% fat
Anyone else close to this ratio and have an open diary? Would love friends close to this ratio who log everyday. I just switched to using TDEE #'s last week and I like it a lot but I'm finding it hard to eat enough protein and fat without blowing my carbs out of the spectrum. I get nearly ALL of my carbs from fresh fruits…

Do you use calories burned on the gym machine or on mfp?
For cardio I prefer the ellipitical machine at the gym. Normally when I get on it I press "quick start" and go. I've been logging it into mfp and for instance today mfp said I burned 446 calories in 35 minutes. Today at the gym I took the time to enter my weight and time and I was suprised at the end of 35 minutes it said…
