User's Goals

Use the profileMacroGoalsSettings mutation to determine and set up a user's weight-related goals based on personal information such as weight, height, activity level, etc. Check this information to know which fields are used to calculate a user's caloric daily requirement.

Considerations to calculate your macros

Setup the goals

If goals are set as "on", those will be used. However, If they are not set or are "off" then for meal planning purposes, the meal plan will default to the program's pre-defined goal settings.

The following profile attributes relate to the goals' functionality and can be set directly on the user's profile.

Define your macro goals to lose weight

If the goal is to lose weight, your targetWeight have to be less than the currentWeight.

Check the following equation:

Then, define the rate to lose weight by choosing a weekly weight-related goal in the weeklyWeightGoalto add calories to the total daily expenditure.

Check this documentation to see the valid values to define for the weeklyWeightGoal

Example:

You will have the following macros:

• currentWeight: 80kg

• targetWeight: 60kg

• weeklyWeightGoal: GOAL_1 (lose 0.5 kg)

This means that the user's goal is to lose 0.5 kg per week until the target weight is reached.

Define your macros goals to gain weight

If the goal is to gain weight, your targetWeight have to be greater than the currentWeight.

Check the following equation:

Then, define the rate to lose weight by choosing a weekly weight-related goal in the weeklyWeightGoalto add calories to the total daily expenditure.

Check this documentation to see the valid values to define for the weeklyWeightGoal

Example:

You will have the following macros:

• currentWeight: 60kg

• targetWeight: 80kg

• weeklyWeightGoal: GOAL_1 (gain 0.5 kg)

This means that the user's goal is to gain 0.5 kg per week until the target weight is reached.
