Or maybe someone will tell me it doesn't matter? That would be nice!
Dr. Eric Westman said that last night at the support group so I can stop there.

an earlier post about it:

Me: Dr Westman answered that last night at the meeting. He doesn't know either...how much fat is coming from your body? The meeting will be available on Periscope for 24 hours...it was excellent.I followed his program for 8 months counting just carbs with pencil and paper before I ever heard of a "tracker"

Poster 2: I was the one that asked the question. I felt sort of silly when he answered my question the way he did. I think I'm spending way too much time concerned with macros and just need to keep tweaking what works for me, my blood sugar and weight loss. He always makes it sound so simple, doesn't he?

Poster 3: thanks for asking the question. Clarified the issue for me in a way I had never thought about...macros do not account for the body fat we want to burn. So simple! If you had not asked I would still be concerned with macros.

I'll let other tackle the numbers part
