    Question Managing your macros...

    OK... I am new. Everyone talk to me like I am an idiot. How do I know what to make every day in a way that will keep me within my suggested macros? And can I do more protein and less carbs if I want with similar results? I'm 105lbs (2.8lbs of that is silicone) and 5'2" and started P90X today though I might switch to something that's not as hard on my chest because if the implants. The goal is to increase muscle and decrease bf% without bulking up too much.

    It's clear from this post that you have little knowledge of proper nutrition. I recommend you to read the stickies posted here and educate yourself. Personally, I eat food to get my sufficient macronutrient and micronutrient intake... I don't know about you.

    Incidentally, are you a female OP? 105lbs is very light.

    Yes. I am female. And of course I eat food. Nothing processed.

    In the context of a good diet, there's no reason you should avoid processed food (in regards to body composition).

    If you're eating food, why do you have trouble hitting your macronutrients?

    Knowing what to eat isn't nearly as difficult as it may seem. If i feel like eating some kind of chicken stir fry, I do. Add in a few other meals throughout the day....come 8 p.m. I'll figure out where I am calorie and macronutrient wise. If I'm lacking in something at that point, I'll eat accordingly.
