Can anyone help me? I am wondering if i am eating to much protein? I am allways over my daily protein intake but allways under my calories, fat, and way under in my carbs. How will this affect my weight loss? Should i try for less protein more carbs? Or is ok as long as im under my calories for the day. Any advice would be very helpful.

    Nope. Lots of protein is good! The default protein limit is rather low.

    Your diary is not public, so I cannot see how much protein you are eating. I personally eat 100-140g of protein a day in a 1450 calorie diet, and it is what my dietician recommended, and have lost 53lbs of weight so far.

    Only possible/maybe a problem if you already have a kidney function issue. Even then, it's only a maybe.
