too much protein???

is this possible? I have been tracking my meals and it seems as if every day i go over on my protein. is this bad? am i not going to see weight loss?

also, if it matters i have been training (running about 5 mi, 5 times a week)

I don't know if there is such a thing as too much. At one point, it is all I ate and lost A LOT of weight but then slowly added carbs back to my diet.

then you must be having a lot of carbs and fat because 60 grams of protein is only 240 cals!

Are you trying to lose weight? 1200 seems a bit low...when I am maintaining thats what i try to stick to but i am quite a bit shorter than you!
