GOING OVER MY PROTEIN INTAKE.

TLIVIGNSTON

Does anyone else have this issue?? im not super strict on my protein intake (always lean though) does it matter if i go over by say 40 -60 if everything else is still under?

You need to get your fat for the day as well. Fat is important for hormones, bone, teeth, hair, skin,. . . . . .
Eat some carbs too-- like beans.

MFP sets protein really low, dont worry if you go over.

Treat protein and fat as minimums and carbs as a maximum, but don't go to extremes with this and cut carbs so low that you lose energy. Some people are more sensitive to this than others.

MFP's macro default settings are pretty naff so here a link on how to set them up correctly...
