Hi everybody. According to the keto calculator I should have consumed 81 g of protein, 121 g of fat and no more than 20 carbs while eating 1500 calories at the end of the day. What if I am over on fats or protein or under how does it affect the diet? Please advise. thank you!

The amount of carbs you eat should primarily be dependent on what degree of ketosis you want to be in.
The amount of protein you eat should primarily be dependent on how much activity/lifting you are doing. It's 0.6-1.0 g/lb of LBM. See the calculator to calculate that range. Protein does affect ketosis, but you probably don't need to worry about it if you don't eat that far out of range.
Fat should be considered last and the amount should be dependent on how much of a caloric deficit/surplus you want.
Eating a little high on protein or fat is only going to be a problem if you are eating more than you should in calories.0
