I divided my calories by the 50-30-20 rule. 50% carbs, 30% protein, and 20% fat. It work very well to slim down. Also to do the calculations you need to know there are 9 calories in every gram of fat.

also realize weight is a factor of caloric balance, not macros. no one food or macronutrient will make you fat outside the context of a daily diet. fat or carbs dont cause weight gain, a surplus of calories causes weight gain
