Ratios?

[IrishMom82]

So I know the ratio for daily intake is typically 65% fat, 5% carbs, and 30% protein. I know the ratios aren't set in stone but what happens if your total ratios don't match up with that? (For example, my ratios for today were 73% fat, 6% carbs, and 21% protein). Thanks!

If they're going to be off, usually more fat and less protein is an okay alternative. But, general rule is to just shoot for them as best you can everyday.

Higher fat, lower protein is okay. You don't want your protein to be much over 30% at any time throughout the plan. Even in maintenance. As you increase carbs, the fat will reduce and the carbs increase, but the protein stays at or slightly under 30%
