Setup Macro %s
Hi,
New user coming from MFP to get more detailed micro nutrient analysis and I have a few questions on things I'm trying to do:
1) How do i set my macro percentages for the day? say I want a 40/30/30 ratio how do i set that up?
2) I overrode my calories per day, but when I go to the dashboard it still shows the original "burned" calorie daily limit and hasn't seemed to have adjusted for my net calories. How do I update this properly?

I don't believe you can set up percentages for macronutrients as goals. You can see them when you use the food log (in a pie chart) so you can see whether you are hitting your mark. But as a separate goal, I'm not aware of that.
How did you override your calorie budget? You can edit 'cal budget' from the dashboard at the home tab - look for 'cal goal' within that. Then save your new value. When I did that today, it saved my new value. I can see it with my pie chart of macros. Is there another place where you don't see it?
