Using a light females stats...

171g protein with 4 cals per gram = 684cals

667g of carbs with 4 cal per gram = 2668 cals

74g of fat with 9 cals per gram = 666 cals

Total cals for a 42y/o 57kg female = 4018 cals

WTF :roll:

Just had a quick play around and it looks like the calculator is recognising carbs as 1 calorie per gram instead of 4. So with Protein set at 171g and Fat at 74g = 1351 Calories, any calorie amount you enter higher than that will give you that same amount in carbs. If you enter below 1351 calories, it tells you to eat negative carbs :lol:

In the mean time, if you divide the number of carbs if gives you by 4 you should get the correct amount.

I'll pass it onto Psuedonym to be fixed ASAP :nod:

NZBB - encouraging bulimia since 2012. :grin:

Cheers guys. You were right - it was showing the calories from carbs, rather than the grams. I've fixed it now.
