    I think that it is the least of your worries of what you can go over :wink:

    My trainer has told me to eat my protein anyway since i work out/lift weights.

    Atkins is based on extreme protein intake...too much protein can be hard on your kidneys , which is why they recommend checking your urine for ketones. However, if you are talking about occasionally going over in reasonable amounts and you don't have kidney issues you should be just fine.

    Think it would be ok if not in huge amounts, especially given your age. If you were older or if you have health issues, then it might be an issue but I think you're be ok otherwise. By how much anyway?

    Also, make sure you're not cutting yourself too short on the other things, they're needed too for well-rounded healthy life.
