    The default protein goal is a minimum, not a maximum.

    It's okay. It's best to error over in protein, many don't get enough so great job! As long as a little of all the other things are in there too it all works out, the rolling daily average over time.

    If you're still in a calorie deficit, no. As stated above, it's generally looked at as a minimum to hit.

    To be honest I'm struggling to get all of my required calories in a day. I'm just not hungry enough for them
