I am for 120 grams per day. I just looked at my last week and I averaged 132 grams. Percentage-wise, that would be 26%. I hit my target most days. When I fall short, it is not usually by much and that is easily made up by the other days because I often go over. I have never noted a correlation between correlation between losing weight and the amount of protein I eat. This is what I ate yesterday (pretty typical):
Breakfast
2 slices bread
3 eggs
1 cup 2% milk
115 grams pineapple
Lunch
4.53 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
1.55 oz yellow bell pepper
1 Kashi chocolate almond sea salt bar
Dinner
6.1 oz. meatloaf
.5 cup turnip greens
1/2 cup mashed potatoes
Snacks
1 150 gram container 2% yogurt w/honey
46 grams Cheez-its crackers0
