The 60/30/10 ratio looks a lot like keto, can I change the proportions?
The 60/30/10 ratio is only a recommendation. We understand some people may do better with more carbs or protein. However, you need a default starting point and most people tend to underestimate how many calories they are consuming especially when it comes to carbohydrates.
We recommend starting with 60/30/10 and see how you perform over 6 to 12 weeks. If you are not getting the results you are looking for adjust. The most important thing is that you are recording the data so that you can see clearly what is working and what is not.

Have meals at a set time every day makes your 24 hr calorie intake more accurate. Breakfast and Lunch are the easiest to control, dinner for most people tends to fluctuate and can negatively affect your sleep. Limiting yourself to 2 bigger meals also give you more flexibility on the foods you can eat within those eating periods.
Your journal asks about continuing education, does this mean formal education?
No. This can be anything from home improvement, creative writing, learning photography, or studying calculus. The point is your mind and body are not mutually exclusive entities. Exercising your brain is good for your body and vice versa.
