I'm noticing that I'm going over in my protein everyday...it's not by much....between 50-70 on average. That's not going to hinder my weight loss is it? Isn't the BIG thing, protein protein protein? TIA all!

Protein should be 1g per pound of lean body mass, (for me, my goal is 120g/day) MFP has the daily requirement really low. I went and adjusted mine to a 'custom' setting, so I can keep better track.
Just be sure you drink lots of water, lots of protein can dehydrate you.
Good Luck!0 -
