Create a New Macro Target Template
Here's the spot to make macro target templates. Once you've made at least one template, you can schedule them for any day of the week below.
- Create a new macro target template using the "+ New Template" in the Templates section.
- Give your template a name.
- Choose from any of the macronutrient target settings: Macro Ratios, Fixed Targets or the Keto Calculator to set up your targets and save as a template.
- Use your current Energy Target Settings from the Profile + Targets tab, or override those settings with a custom energy target for your template.
- Click save to add these settings to your list of templates.
Edit a Macro Target Template
Edit your template if you'd like to make any changes and apply them to all days where you have scheduled this template. Click update, then confirm you would like these changes applied to past days when this target was scheduled.
Edit a Copy of a Macro Target Template
If you would like to edit a copy of this template without affecting your previous data, Select Copy.
Make any changes you like and click Save.
The copy will be saved as a separate template in your list.
Delete a Template
Deleting a template will remove it from all days in the past, present and future that use this template. If you have used this template in the past, consider Editing a Copy of the template instead so that the targets you used in the past are saved.
Click the Delete button next to a template:
Then confirm you would like to revert all days using this template to your default targets.
Schedule Templates
After you've created your macro templates, set up your weekly schedule. Use the drop-down menu for each day of the week to assign a template for that day in your diary.
This will apply your template to that day of the week from now on. Selecting a new template from the drop-down list will apply the new template going forward only, preserving the targets you scheduled in the past. To apply changes to your template in the past, edit your template in the Templates section or edit a single day in your diary.
Reset Defaults
Click on Reset Defaults to return your targets for all days going forward to your macronutrient settings you've selected in your Profile + Targets.
Edit a Template from Your Diary
You can see what template is used each day in your diary:
Edit your targets for a single day in your diary on the fly without changing your scheduled targets. Editing your targets for the day will not affect your targets for days in the past or future. This option will only edit your targets for the current day in your Diary.
- Click the Daily Target Editor displayed at the top of your Diary.
- Edit your targets for this day only. You can select a pre-made template you have saved using the drop-down list at the top or Create Custom Targets for Today.
