I have a huge one day gain and broke my BF streak in range. I think most of it will be temporary. Yesterday I ate "Poorly" at 135% of goal due to late night snacking. I exceeded my protein goal and met all activity goals. BF up 0.7% and is out of range...
156.0 lb Lost so far: 7.0 lb.    Still to go: 1.0 lb.    Diet followed poorly.

At least you have such clear goals with your protein. I'm still trying to figure it out myself. Knowing what to do makes goals attainable. :)

Thanks HardDaysKnight, Bill and Binkytexas!!! @ Binkytexas, I agree, it took me some time to arrive at my micro goals. My main focus when eating is my protein goal and of course calories. Some formulas for the recommended amount of protein vary as to the amount needed from person to person. They are mostly based on weight and activity. Some people (body builders for example) use a blanket approach and eat 150 grams of protein daily. That is not necessary for everyone. Tracking my CICO helped me determine what I think is a good goal for me. My current protein goal is 110 grams of protein daily or 35% of my food intake. I used to eat 150 grams a day but that required me to eat more calories and caused an increase in body fat. No one can outrun the fork. This is what is working for me now...

I too am trying to figure out what my protein goal should be. I know women aren't supposed to need as much, but when I work out really hard, it sure seems to make a difference if I have a lot. I'm trying to get somewhere from 80 to 100 grams.
