Question: I am struggling to calculate my macros. Before the program, I was averaging 2000 calories per day. I calculated my TDEE based on my weight and activity level to be 1728. Taking a 20% deficit put me at 1382 calories. This very low number contradicts what Amber has been teaching us about starting out high. Am I off track?

Question: Hello, how do I sign up for custom macros? I am not sure if I did. I did sign up for macros 101 and paid. Also, when I click on request coaching, it takes me to a blank page that says I can't access that. And a few other things I click on also takes me to that page.
