Sorry, I am new to this whole thing, and I inputted my calories and it says I am -22 for protein but I have 870 calories left. Is it bad to have too much protein?

    The default percentages are generally low for protein for what many people consider a good amount for weight loss. Unless you have a kidney functionality issue, its not unhealthy to go over on protein. Try adjusting your percentages to 40% protein, 30% carbs 30% fat. May work better for you.
