Macro Cheat Sheet
✨Macro Cheat Sheet✨
When you’re building meals, aim for well-rounded plates that include:
Protein
Carbs
Healthy Fats
Here’s why each matters (and how to make it happen):
Protein
•Builds muscle 💪
•Keeps you full and satisfied
•Supports a healthy body composition
Most people don’t eat enough protein, and the sweet spot for most is 0.7–1.0 grams per pound of body weight daily.
For example, if you’re 150 lbs, you’d aim for 105–150 grams of protein.
Quick tip: If you’re only eating 2–3 oz of protein per meal, it’s probably not enough. Think bigger portions!
I’ve got tons of protein cheat sheets and guides listed in my profile to help you hit your goals easily.
Carbs
•Are crazy delicious
•Fuel your workouts
•Help with recovery and digestion (thank you, fiber!)
Your carb needs depend on how active you are.
Fiber Goals: Aim for at least 25–30g/day and drink plenty of water to support digestion and heart health.
Healthy Fats
•Help absorb vitamins A, D, E, and K
•Support hormone and menstrual health
•Keep your hair, skin, and mood in check
A good starting goal? 20–25% of your calories from fats, or roughly 30–50g/day.
Eating super low-fat for long periods can mess with your hormones, so don’t skip out on those avocados, nuts, and olive oil!
The bottom line?
Nutrition doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Focus on building balanced meals, keep it simple, and stay consistent.
