Could anyone help with a range for carbs and fats. Nit seeing dietician until 15th of the month
 
50g carbs a day and enough fats to stop you feeling hungry?
 
I used to log into MyFitnessPal when I was on a low calorie diet, and it was synced to Walkmeter so I could see what I'd consumed/burned each day. (This was before I was told I'm pre-diabetic).
However, MFP says 50% carbs, 30% fat and 20% protein, so I stopped logging in to it as I was advised here re LCHF diet which clearly doesn't correlate with MFP.
Obviously I'm trying to lose weight, but apart from an initial loss of 5lb when I first started low carbs, I've lost no more, despite sticking religiously to low carbs and walking around 5.5 miles every day.
Pretty fed up to be honest.
 
You can put in your own ratios for MFP..
 
Don't get fed up...type in your own ratio's and start again!

Oh right, I hadn't realised that.
Thanks.
Click to expand...
and double check the carbs..it's a user input data base and they are quite often wrong..but once you have you own food list and premeasured meals, it's a simple method of 'click to ad'
 
Thanks all, I will change the values on MFP.
 
Lalalaa!

Just tried, couldn't find it in settings.
 
Ok, cheers.
