I read your protein intake should be 1 gram per pound of body weight.
Thats a lot of freakin protein but this weekend I tried to get to close to that number.
Its my last resort to see if it will aid in some pound shedding.

I eat 100-130 grams per day. yes, you should be eating one gram per pound of bodyweight per day. more if you weight train heavy for added muscle mass.
just take your weight, and divide it by how many meals you eat per day. this is the amount you should have per meal.

I aim for 1 gram per lb. of bodyweight but it doesn't always happen. It's hard to eat that much protein and not keep eating the same things over and over (hard for ME anyway!)
