Macronutrient app that doesn’t show calories?

Hello everyone, I’m looking to download an app that will help me track my macronutrients. I am in receivers for an ED and seeing calories is somewhat triggering for me, but I really want to make sure im hitting all of my nutritional goals. Any recommendations?

Answer

1 gram carbohydrates = 4 calories

1 gram protein = 4 calories

1 gram fat = 9 calories

Easy to quickly estimate the number of calories in your head if you are shown the macronutrient numbers so I don’t see how hiding the total calorie count would help you much.
