    0.60 to 0.82 grams per 1 lb. of bodyweight is ideal unless you compete as a professional bodybuilder and basically all you do is eat, train, compete, sleep.

    Anything more for the average person is a waste. Any less, and you're probably losing muscle over the long term.

    @jddnw & @mamapeach.... Thanks for that, hadn't realised you could do that. That will be very useful for a quick log of my regular evening meals as well.
