Default Clarification

Whoops! Guess I wasn't as clear as I wanted to be. Here's an easier formula based on the info in my earlier post:

To find your "target" fat grams:

_______ x _11_ x _.75__ = fat calories
goal
weight


Then, divide calories by 9 to get fat grams!

So if your goal weight is 130:

130 x 11 x .75 = 1072 goal fat calories

1072 divided by 9 = 119 goal fat grams!

* the value 11 I used could be 10, 11, or 12 (up to you)

* Some say to use .7 instead of .75

Hope this helps!
