Good Fat / Bad Fat / Protein Goals?

I'm working toward a high protein diet and am struggling in the fats category, but the source is from high protein/good fat foods: eggs, avocado, etc. Should I try to cut back on even healthy fats like this and focus more on meat as a source of protein or can I ignore going over my goal if the fats are from a good source?

I'm a newbie in learning what to eat to get the most out of the gym. Any advice is helpful. Feel free to add me.

Thanks.

    It's all about the calories. You can pretty much eat any way you want.
    I have a protein shake after a workout. Its fast, and its easy.

    If the high fat numbers are preventing you from getting enough protein or carbs, then yes... cut back on them.

    Otherwise it probably isn't a big deal. There is a lot of trial and error when you are beginning... so stick with what you're doing for a month or 2 and see how you do. There are lots of ways to skin this cat.
