    I am usually over on the protein that is allowed on the default. I am more worried about going over on sodium or fats.

    Veggies are great and have no protein but maybe slip in some chicken too

    I never worry about the protein on the default either, I'm usually over before dinner. I just keep trucking along with the calories in calories out theory and forget about the rest except the sodium. Wellll, I'm saying to drink 1300 cal. worth of olive oil, but you know what I mean.:laugh:
  • I think the Protein setting is too low especialy for those of us who work out on top of the diet.

    Yea, a little more protein is better than too much carb.
