I try not to go over on anything on my allotment so I usually end up with a little leftover of each, Calories, Carbs, Fat, and Protein. However, there are days I do go over on one.
Can anyone tell me which is the worst to go over on? Which will stall my weight loss if I go over on it? Can anyone tell me the order in which would be worse.....does that make any sense:laugh: ?

    Calories are calories (in terms of energy and storage) so it really doesn't matter if it's any when it comes to weight loss. 100 calories from protein is the same energy value as 100 calories from fat.

    No, not in the context your referring to.

    Go over on protein, especially if you're using the default MFP settings, which are very low for protein.
