"Aug. 29, 2013 — A new report appearing in the September issue of The FASEB Journal challenges the long-held adage that significant muscle loss is unavoidable when losing weight through exercise and diet. In the report, scientists show that consuming twice the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of protein while adhering to a diet and exercise plan prevents the loss of muscle mass and promotes fat loss. Tripling the RDA of protein, however, failed to provide additional benefits."
RDA reccomendation for protein 10%-35% of total macros
56g an adult male
46g an adult female

TL;DR
When on a diet eat a minimum of
112g of proteinz if male
92g of proteinz if female

LOL @ 46 g for females. Multiply that by about 4, and we'll talk. I like red meat. I don't give a flying crap whether or not eating more than 92 g will provide extra benefits, other than making me really happy.0
