I am with you with this Never understood why some people respect random (or any) macros insanely much, clear desires of the body be damned… I understand some ranges are the goal sometimes but many people do it way too strict.
I am very indulgent anyway but now I just don’t track, happens what happens. It’s a bit strange to do it blind but shouldn’t be any worse than with tracking (it’s not like I stop eating when a macro gets twice as it was vaguely planned…).
I still have macros that are ideal for me. Wide ranges, I mean, my body likes stability and similar days but not enough to be able to handle small ranges. As going over my okay ranges is inavoidable but very occasional, I don’t respect them very much either. I just know I should be able to stick to them, at least almost always. But my body has the final say. Or I make a mistake, it happens and it’s fine if it’s very occasional.
Programs, keto calculators, trendy views or magazines never had an impact on my own macros, I figured them out myself when I went low-carb (I never tracked before and can’t even guess my old typical macros). Keto and carnivore didn’t change them further except the carbs macro. Some of us have their “macro taste”? Preferred ratios? Preferred grams? So mine probably never will change much.
