Can you really have too much fiber? Protein?

    Chicken really?

    You know what I meant, stop asking mindless rhetorical questions invalidating the point.

    I figured it out - it's under "goals" not settings.

    Thank you fro this topic! I have been over my fiber intake for the past couple of weeks and I have wondered if it will interfere in my weight loss. Since I eat most of my daily fiber intake in my breakfast alone, I was wondering if this is a bad thing and will it compromise my weight loss at a longer run?

    Best wishes to you all :smile:

    Hey there - that's exactly why I think they ought to change it so it does not show as a red, scary "overage!"
    I changed mine in my "goals" settings to 30. I still go over that sometimes too.

    But anyway yeah I think having a lot of fiber generally only HELPS with the weight loss, and would never hurt it! on "Weight Watchers" they are always pushing fiber, fiber fiber, because it's good for you and makes you feel fuller without eating as much.
    Good luck!
