Macro Calculator

This calculator turns a daily calorie figure into protein, carbohydrate and fat targets. Enter maintenance calories and a goal, choose your own percentage split, or use the cutting mode, which sets protein from your body weight in pounds or kilograms, fat as a share of a reduced calorie target and gives carbohydrate the rest. Each line shows grams and calories. Maintenance is an estimate, so adjust after two or three weeks on the scale trend.
