    Well, macros stands for macronutrients. That is, Proteins Carbs and Fats. So when someone posts up a diet, and others ask for the macros, that means how many grams of carbs, proteins and fats are in each meal. So pretty much the breakdown. That's what I understand it to be. Hope that helps!

    Yes, Macros is short for Macro-nutrients and simply means anything that is a protein a carbohydrate or a fat.
