Hi:
Welcome to MFP.
I suggest you ear the MFP "Most Helpful Post" at the beginning of this thread.
Buy yourself a food scale, weigh all the food you ingest and log it at MFP.
If you eat at a deficit ( calories burned higher than calories ingested), you will decrease body weight
I do not understand why you wish to keep protein down.
I suggest to log at MFP for at least a week to find what your baseline is.
Vegetables,fruit and grains have plenty of fiber. Try to eat more of them.
Good luck in your healthy journey

I am doing a program with the Wharton clinic and they say I should try to keep my protein to around 65mg. And a lot of days have been more than that like 77gm. And every women should try to eat 30gm of fiber daily. I do record everything I eat on MFP find it very help ful and have recorded 2 of my recipe on here . Learning more everyday. Thank you very much for your input appreciate it.
