okay so ive been searching like crazy and i cant find a definitive answer. Is it okay to go over fiber in IIFYM. i mean i incorporate treats and what not but seriously like i like to eat veggies and typical "clean" stuff but with that said i go over in fiber. Can some one please sorta explain the whole fiber deal with IIFYM.

    Fiber is one of those things that I always treat as a minimum to reach every day rather than a maximum to stay under. You should be fine.

    Fiber is not a macro-nutrient...

    IIFYM suggests that if you eat a well balanced and overall nutritious diet and hit your macros, you are also going to meet or exceed your micro-nutrients. As long as you aren't pooping yourself, you're fine.
