I Set my goal for weight then I let the program set my plan automatically. That gave me an idea of daily calories. Then I set goals a second time manually. I left the calories at the level previously set by the program but I changed the carb, protein and fat percentages as follows:
5% carbs, 35% Protein and 60% Fat. This works really well for me. At this time I am not trying to track net carbs. I just track total carbs and try to keep them around 20 per day. Usually I find myself a little on the low side for carbs and have to force myself to bring them up to the Atkins suggested level for induction.
Before starting Akins I was a calorie counter I and used MFP for tracking. I have used it for many years and I feel very comfortable using it
I've used MFP then switched to ATKINS Carb Counter but it's very limited in its search and the counts are wrong on a lot of the foods Originally Posted by Larry H
