Protein macro

My macros are set as following;-
Protein 20% (65g), carbs 10% (32g) and fat 70% (100g).

I stay under my carbs and fat, but make up the calorie deficit by slightly going over my protein, no more than 20g a day, and not every day.

I find it quite tricky getting that much fat daily, and have read I don't need to hit the fat target, just eat until satisfied. Protein and carbs are the main ones to watch.

Will going over my protein hinder weight loss?

    Easy to get all the fat you want: Coconut Oil, MCT Oil, Macadamia Nuts & Oil, Kerry Gold Butter.....

    It could I suppose. But, it tends to depend mostly on how carb sensitive you are.
    If you're getting results, then I'd say keep up the good work.
    You don't have to hit the fat goal, but it's important to get enough for healthy hormones and satiety. Let the rest come from body fat.
