    Don't fix the protein and fiber, they are great for you! That's just a minimum you should take in. Watch the fat intake so you're not going way over and make sure you're getting your nutrients! Sounds like you're doing GREAT! Way to go!

    Getting extra protein and fiber are absolutely ok! I just looked at your diary, and what i noticed, at least for the last few days, is that most of your fat is coming from Peanut Butter and Almonds, which is actually "good" fat. I wouldn't worry about going over by a couple grams, if it's that, and not ho-ho's. :)

    Keep up the great work! :)

    Protein & fiber -- it's great to go over! Just choose lower carb foods -- healthy fat is a good thing..... also, as far as carbs go, it seems like you eat a lot of bread - cut some of that out. I rarely eat bread - and am fine with it. :)

    Definitely! The protein and fiber suggestions should be an "at least" kind of thing - those numbers being red is a good thing! :) As for the fat - I personally have a tendency to do certain things every day (peanut butter and jelly for breakfast, creamer with my coffee) daily that can ramp mine up - just check back on your diary and see if there's something you do regularly that has high fat content, and then try to find an alternative (I ordered powdered peanut butter, it hasn't come in yet, but I tried a co-workers and it's actually very good). Just find what works for you :)
  • Hey there! If you would like to friend me and open your food diary to me I might be able to give you some tips. If not, chances are you may be eating a little bit too much fatty meat and/or cheese. The fiber is not a problem! :happy:
