[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s fine to go over - it will help ensure you don’t lose muscle. I’m not sure MFP is great for determining macros for people that lift weights. I would go by recommendations for people that lift weights. Typically it’s somewhere around 1.5 grams per pound of lean body mass (for example if you are 138 pounds with 28% body fat, your LBM is 99 pounds), so 150 grams of protein. I’m sure people here will tell you you don’t need that much protein though, as there seems to be more focus on losing weight around here, with no consideration on maintaining muscle mass.[/quote]
