I'm setting up the goals in My Fitness Pal manually. Has anyone come up with an ideal ratio for protein, carb, fat intake?

I think you kind of want to look at Keto or low carb type diets pre-op because that seems to be the post-op lifestyle for most people. About 20% carbs and the rest protein and fat should make up the percentage of your daily calories.

No Terry but I sure will be following also. Step 2, which I am still supposed to be on is 600-800 calories and 55 grams of protein. But beyond that I am at a loss as to,break down, I know mine is too low in calories to be a permanent solution, only,for 4 weeks and supervised. Supervision is in Columbus, I'm 48 miles NE of ther, don't see them until October 9th.?

Pre or post op?

Pre-op should be about 40% protein and 30/30%. I imagine you could also do 50% protein and 25/25%. Your current activity level could have an impact also. This is what my program stipulated.

It's about daily grams of protein requirements not percentages of diet intake

If you are talking about post op and the typical 600-800 calories a day with a minimum amount of protein, then yes. I think some posters are assuming that. That is why I asked if pre or post op.

But if pre-op, or even at maintenance, I think we can agree that one can't have unlimited fat and carbs if protein goals are met.

This is currently my macros for 6 weeks post op. My daily calories alternate between 600-700. I should mention my macros are approved by my surgical team.

I should also mention that my goal is more than 60g of protein... so I try to hit that first, and the rest fall in line.
