    Ok guys...I know I have to read the stickies but I have one more question. I started using myfitnesspal a few days ago to track what I eat and it seems I consistently go over my daily allowance on fat ( even though most of that is healthy fats) and protein...while being at about half on carbs.

    How bad is that and what wrong with my diet?

    Looks like you're going over on carbs, not fat. Cut way down on the fruits.

    So can anyone help with this new question I have? I am really curious how is my diet so wrong that I am going so much over fat and protein levels but like half on carbs.

    That's because your goals are set poorly. You can alter them in MFP.

    Those goals were suggested by myfitnesspal after I suggested how much I want to gain weekly?

    Macros should be .8g of protein per pound and .4g of fat per pound as minimums, these are not maximums. Once those MINIMUMS are met, fill remaining calories out as you like with protein/fat/carbs.
    Short cuts to success are often paved with lies.

    5/10/16: Finally back to lifting, light but improving.

    So as long as I meet the minimums then I only have to worry about the calories to be the right amount? Doesn't matter if protein is like 100grams over or fats are 100 grams over? (mostly healthy fats) ??

    Current weight unless obese than goal weight is usually better.

    Same calories daily, keep it simple.

    - Your mindset influences your outcome. It's time to take out phrases like "I can't" or "I don't have time" and replace them with phrases like "I will make the time" and "I will keep working at it until I find a way that works." Success starts with the right mindset and believing in yourself and your dreams.

    Most salads at McDonalds have higher calories than the burgers.
