    Do you know what that breaks down as a % of daily macros?

    Like a typical split could run 30% protein, 35% from fat, 35% from carbs or some variation of that?

    Sometimes apps can shoot for really high protein % goals (where it ends up being like 40-50% of daily macros). If you're active I used to suggest people stick around 30-35%.

    If that's where your at and are tryig to gain weight or maintain you could add a protein powder. It's usually a good 25 extra gs.

    If you're trying to lose weight I would add Veggies that are high in protein to some of your meals.

      Oh my bad, it's 25% because I'm pretty infrequently active, but I'm looking to start being active more regularly. I'll definitely look at adding more of those veggies into my diet tho
