Hey everyone! I recently started to count calories again and I was planning my meals for the next couple of days and noticed a pretty common trend. My Fitness Pal set me up at daily goals of 176g carbs, 47g fat, and 71g of protein. As an example, for the meals I have logged Saturday I'm left over with +31g carbs, +12g fats, and -9g protein.
I'm trying to be more active but in no way am I at a point where I need extra protein. I was also planning to fall back on some tuna/crackers if I got hungry (I have enough calories left over to fit). I heard extra protein can affect your kidneys but they didn't really say how much extra. Should I be concerned with the small amount I go over or is it only a worry if it's excessive? It's mostly from animal sources but I do have a couple of plant sources too.
