    Don't worry about it. MFP has their protein default set low anyway, in my opinion.

    Agreed. I consistently go over my protein, but never meet my carbs, but I prefer a higher protein diet anyway, and it seems to be working for me so far.

    Yep, my protein is set for 180g and I often go over. High protein intake is only a problem if you have weak kidneys or are chronically dehydrated.
  • thanks !
