There’s a Keto calculator which I tried using to compute the amount of calories and macros (fat, protein, carbs) I should take in daily.īut before that – you need to get your Body Fat Percentage first. Depending on your goal, you need to adjust the total calories you take in daily. If you’re really after losing weight, I don’t think that will help. If this helps you and/or inspires you please let me know.Some people think that with Keto, as long as you avoid carbs and sweets, you can eat as much as you want.

Tracking your macros really helps to make sure you get to enjoy the health benefits of ketosis along with burning fat. It is easy to eat too much or too little and sometimes we need to tweak things. It’s great for keeping yourself on track.

I pretty much ignore calories and other items, and use it to track my fat, protein, net carbs, water and excercise. No matter what, you only want to eat 20 net carbs a day max instead of whatever MyFitnessPal might suggest. NOTE: MyFitnessPal is set up for low fat / low calorie diets, which is why we need to use the “keto hack” above to be able to track net carbs. After installing the plugin in the browser, click here to install it the Grease Monkey script that will do the calculating. Download this addon that will calculate the net carb in the browserĥ. These are what you need to track for a low carb or ketogenic diet.Ĥ. Make sure you at least have carbs, fiber, fat and protein selected. Add Fiber to your list of nutrients to track.You also need to add Fiber as a column to track so the script can calculate Net Carbs for you Set calories to whatever – I ignore calories 🙂ģ.Change the following Fat 70%, Protein 25% and Carbs 5% and click Save Changes button.In the Daily Nutrition Goals section click the Edit button.Here are some easy instructions on how to set up MyFitnessPal for a low carb way of eating (diet).Ģ.
