What this worksheet is for
Plan and track protein, carbohydrate, fat and calories across a week. The worksheet turns that goal into a repeatable record, so later decisions are based on the same fields rather than memory or scattered notes.
What is included
- Daily rows for protein, carbohydrate, fat and calories
- Weekly totals and averages so one unusual day does not dominate the review
- Space for training, hunger, digestion, sleep and adherence notes
How to use it
- Enter the target range once, then record actual intake using the same label and recipe method.
- Review the weekly average before changing targets; day-to-day variation is expected.
- Use the notes to identify whether the plan is practical, not merely whether the numbers were hit.
Worked example
A person may undershoot protein on one busy day and exceed it on another. The weekly average shows whether the overall pattern is close to target and whether meal planning, not the target itself, is the real issue.
Worksheet or calculator?
Use the Macro Calculator to set a starting target and the Recipe Calorie Calculator for batch meals. The tracker is for testing whether that plan works across an ordinary week.
- Changing macro targets because of one unusual day.
- Using inconsistent recipes or serving sizes across the week.
- Hitting the numbers while ignoring hunger, digestion, training and food variety.

Do macros need to be exact every day?
No. A reasonable range and consistent weekly pattern are usually more practical than forcing every day to match perfectly.
What should be changed first when adherence is poor?
Change the meal structure, food choices or tracking method before assuming the calculated target is wrong. A plan that cannot be followed is not useful.
