Anyone Else?...Under Calories but in the RED on macros?

Allup2Me78

I am always studying my food diary and trying to change out certain foods for others so that I am not in the red..Thanks for the info as i have learned more about protein and incorporated more of that starting last wk..I will focus more on calories & protein

You've gotten all the answers that will help you solve this. Now it's up to you to practice and learn - like we all did. Unless you study your Food Diary on a regular basis, you aren't going to magically stumble on the combo.

Really, just worry about getting enough protein, staying within your calories, and let the rest fall where it falls. You're fine.

Thanks Boo!! :flowerforyou:

I never paid much attention to the other stuff just calories...and carbs occasionally.

Yeah, I'm always red on protein

All I look for more or less...

I've had times when I'm way over in calories yet green on macros.

Dat dere Smirnov...

This.

But--

is going over protein bad? I assumed that was okay, especially if your fitness regimen is strength training heavy, maybe.

I ALWAYS go over my carbs. All the time.
Sodium is tricky too, but I've learned to balance that out.

But you're def not alone,
& I'm sure there are a ton of people who do the same.

I only pay attention to the protein macro. And I try to go over because I don't think I get enough. I don't much care about the others though.
