5g isn't really a significant number to be worrying about. And getting more protein isn't going to do you any harm. The protein recommendations on here are rather low anyways. If your calories are still in check then theres nothing to worry about. I get around 200g of protein most days which is obvioulsy way over what mfp would suggest. 50 grams is awfully low.0

nothing wrong with getting more protein. it's used to build muscle after all. just make sure you're exercising to make it work! i have no idea how much you weigh, but i'd probably recommend more than what you are currently getting. i try to get 1.5x my bodyweight each day. obviously it differs with girls and activity level/goals, but you get the idea. protein is awesome!0

You should really go into your macro nutrients and change them. That amount of protein, 45g, is WAY too low for daily consumption. I would highly suggest evening them out to a point you are getting a minimum of 0.85g/lbs of body weight.0 -
You did mean 0.85 * body weight lbs = gms of protein to eat, right? Because at that, I need to eat 243.1 gms of protein a day. Really? I must be doing something wrong.0
