If you choose Fixed Targets, your macronutrient targets remain the same each day. By default, this setting uses the recommended dietary allowances (RDAs) from the Dietary Reference Intakes for macronutrients. You can customize your targets manually to set fixed gram amounts for each macronutrient by entering the values in the boxes.

  1. Go to More > Targets > Macro & Energy Targets\n
    2. \n
  2. Scroll past your Energy Target to the Macro Targets section
    3. \n
  3. \nSelect macro targets using > Choose Fixed\n
    4. \n
  4. Enter the values in the boxes below
    5. \n

If you've set a Weight Goal, you might see that your total energy from your Fixed macro targets do not align perfectly with your Energy Target. If you'd prefer to have them match, you can toggle on Custom Energy Target and enter a value that matches your macro totals.

 

If you prefer to set Fixed Targets in calories instead of grams, tap on Show Advanced Settings and select kcal.
