    a) Open diary so we can see.
    b) Don't sweat today, make better choices tomorrow.
    c) You are over on fats and protein but under on carbs ? Have some fruit.

    I wish I had that problem...I either hit it or I'm under.

    Though on 1200 calories, I'd hope you'd be getting adequate protein and fat! What is your age, weight, height, activity level and exercise level like?

    Protein and fats should be seen as minimums not maximums - eat more

    also how are your protein goals set - MFP starts quite low .. should aim for 0.8-1g protein per pound of LBM
