Hello!
We’re introducing a new way to set your nutrition goals in FunTastyQ Fit: now you can choose whether to specify your macronutrients (carbs, protein, fat) as percentages or in grams. Let’s break down exactly what the difference is between these two modes and when each one makes sense.
Percentage Mode (Default)
This is the existing and ongoing default option. You specify what percentage of your daily calories should come from carbs, protein, and fat (for example, 40/30/30). Based on this breakdown, the app calculates your daily calorie intake according to your body, activity level, and weight goal—and if your weight, activity level, or goal changes over time, the gram amounts adjust automatically. You don’t have to recalculate anything.
This works perfectly for most users: whether you’re starting to lose weight, want to eat healthier, or just want a convenient setup, this plan is the most reliable—it adapts to you.
Gram Mode (New)
In Gram Mode, you set each macro separately in grams and independently of one another—for example, “180 g of carbs, 150 g of protein, 60 g of fat.” Your daily calorie intake is calculated based on these grams (carbs and protein provide 4 kcal per gram, fat 9 kcal per gram), not the other way around.
An important difference: in gram mode, your calorie intake doesn’t adjust automatically if your weight or goal changes. The plan stays exactly as you set it until you change it. This gives you complete control, but it also requires you to keep track of when it’s time to review the numbers.
When to choose which one?
You’re starting a healthier diet or trying to lose weight → percentage mode. Let the app do the calculations for you, and the plan stays up to date even as your weight changes.
Your trainer has given you a specific macro plan (e.g., “150 g of protein, 200 g of carbs, 70 g of fat per day”) → gram mode. You enter exactly those numbers, and the app tracks them without any internal recalculations.
You’re preparing for a competition or tracking your nutrition very precisely → gram mode. Athletes and experienced users often want manual control over how their calorie intake changes at different stages of the process—this mode gives you that control.
About Fiber
In Gram Mode, carbohydrates are counted the same way they are on food packaging—4 kcal per gram, without subtracting fiber separately. The fiber recommendation (approximately 13 g per 1,000 kcal) is still displayed as a separate value, regardless of which mode you choose.
How to enable it
Go to the macros settings in your profile—there you’ll find a new %/g toggle that lets you switch freely between percentage and gram modes.
Try both and see which one works better for you. If anything is unclear or you have suggestions, feel free to write to us—feedback is always welcome!
