Smile Finally found my problem!

don't eat too much protein
I have found that excess protein turns into to glycogen and is stored as fat.

I've been going from 176 to 177.5 lbs for two weeks now. I don't want to eat carbs anymore but I do want to stop overeating.
I've been eating 12 oz's of protein for dinner most of the time along with my 2 cups of veggies. Now I am going to eat less protein and more fat. The problem is where do I find this extra fat? Cheese, creamed veggies? Help!
