If you ate eating healthy fats (avocado, olive oil, etc....) , will going over your allotment affect weight loss? Do you have to stay in the amount set for you?

    As long as you are at or near your calorie goal, then you should be fine.

    Nope, lost my weight eating almost 40% day. Nuts and nut butter are a huge staple for me. Honestly I think MFP sets protein and fat to low, and carbs too high, except for sugar which is set too low assuming you plan on eating fruits.

    Losing weight at 75% fat. No major stalls thus far.
