Is there a such thing as to much Fiber? I tend to almost double what MFP tells me. Same with Protein. I was just wondering.

    Well, too much fibre can have effects on your bowel movement, same with protein... Ever heard about protein farts? No? I'd recommend a gas mask ;) However, honestly, it's great that you eat so much fibre and protein. Fibre is great for keeping your stomach working, and protein is the staple in order to actually buildmuscle and lose fat!
