I'm the same, but loosely following Atkins so more concerned about carb intake than anything else!0

Do your best to keep calories, carbs & sodium at or below the required values. Protein being over is not a bad thing. Mine is almost always over by at least 20.0

Correct to what they are saying...
When you are eating high amounts of protein remember the following:
Macronutrients (veggies, vitamins, minerals) are important to ensure you are getting enough.
Carbs - give your body enough carbs so that the brain gets what it needs (the brain wants carbs for fuel not protein)
Fiber - you need to make sure you get more fiber...
Water -drink right?
Otherwise - you should be fine!!!0 -

You would have to eat 300-400 g of protein withno other foods for days before there might be a problem0
