I agree with this. Even trying to hit higher calories with 30p, 30f, 40c can be very hard some days. I could probably do the 40% protein, but would have a hard time hitting only 20% fat.

Knowing how to do that is the key though. Although I do know that if I lose muscle with the fat at the moment that I'm okay with that. Having said that I feel better eating more losing (roughly) the same amount while lifting weights. I feel better than I would eating a lot less and doing nothing. That in itself makes it more sustainable.
