For the first raw of form 2, copy the number for your two-day averages from the last raw of form 1. That is your actual intake for two days. Then you should use the numbers that you got from computerized analysis according to your profile and BMI (minimum DRI requirements for your age and gender) and copy them to the second raw of form 2 and then calculate the percentages. You can calculate the percentages by dividing your actual intake (which should on the first raw) by your RDA recommended values (which should be on second raw copied from analysis) and then you should multiply this number by 100. For example, if your actual energy consumption is 2500 kcal and your recommended kcal according to your age, gender and weight is 1500 kcal, then you are taking %166 kcal more than the recommended level. 2500 / 1500 = 1.66 1.66 X 100 = 166 % For the calculations for Form 3; First, you should calculate how much of your kcal is coming from protein, carbohydrate, and fat (by using your average daily intake (again you may get these numbers from last raw on form 1). For example for protein intake; Protein: _____70___g/day x 4 cal/g = (P) ____280_______ cal/day. The total number of calories coming from these nutrients (CHO, protein, and fats) should be approximately equal to your total calories that you calculated on form 1 on last raw. Then you should calculate the percentage of calories coming from each of these nutrients. For example; The percentage of the cal of from Proteins in this example is ; You should divide 280 cal/day by your total calories and multiply by 100 ; 280 / ~ 2500 cal/day = 0.112
