Hi @Sparkx - Whole30 is an intuitive eating plan so we don't prescribe macros, calories or percentages. We want you to eat 1-2 palms (your palm's length, width and thickness) of protein at every meal, 2-3+ cups of cooked veggie or equivalent and 1-2 servings of fat. See the meal template linked in my signature below.

What sort of results are you looking for that you're wanting to move towards? The meal template is where it's at for balancing your intake and thus balancing your hormones and blood sugar. 

Have a read through our resources at Whole30.com and if you have further questions, let us know.
