Ok, i'm 1 of those who like to count everything. So when i read about the calculation 40/30/30 by calories or grams, i was wondering if i was doin mine the right way.

Did 2 tables for comparison.
Table A - 40%pro 30%carb 30%fat broken down by calories
Table B - 40%pro 30%carb 30%fat broken down by weight ie. grams
Assumptions are the person's 70kg.

It looks like if we arrange our consumption by calories, the protein consumption per bodyweight is on the higher limit while using the weight method, the protein is on the low side. I guess method A is preferable for those of us into body improvements.

But the biggest impact was in fat, counting calories is a lot healthier. If you look at the calories in method B, if u eat by 40/30/30 by weight, the calories resulting from fat is 40% of the total calory consumption at 1120cal !

Anyway juz to satisfy my curiosity & share here. Semiparalysed ordy..
