    Not bad at all, unless you are right on target each day with each nutrient, you are going to be over on something. If Protein is the nutrient you are always over on, thats a good thing.

    Going over in protein is only bad if it causes you to eat a calorie surplus over your TDEE, and your goal is to lose weight.

    The protein level MFP gives you is suuuuper low! A good way to measure if your getting your protein is to look at your goal weight and eat that many grams of protein a day.

    For example, my goal weight is 120, so I eat 120 grams of protein a day. =)
