How do i know how many cal. Are protien? Or just take total off the turkey, chicken.... Bc you hv cal from fat, carb, ect....

Livestrong.com my plate, it makes things very easy u log what u eat. After u log it go down the page it gives u a breakdown of cals in protein, carbs, fats even sodium.

Ok, 66+(13.7xwgt) + (1.8x hgt) - 4.7x age

So: 13.7 x 190+66= 2669
1.8x6.0=10.8
4.7x30=141

so I hv 2538.8 for total calorie intake.
X50%=1304 of protien!? Means 1300 calories of protein, not 1300 grams haha, so divide it by 4 which is 300 ish, much more believable..
X20%=507 of fat = divided by 9 is your gram intake(9 calories per gram of fat)
X30%=761 of carbs/4

Doesnt sound rite.

Didn't check your math up the top.. Sorry, but yeah you just got a bit confused between grams of the macro and the calories bro
