How much protein should I consume in a day? I am trying to lose some weight but eat protein. I weigh about 113 lbs. How many grams of protein should I consume?

    That depends entirely upon you! I lose weight best when I get at least 90g a day (5'4', 186lbs). However, some people like more, others do better with less. I find more protein helps me stay full longer, so I don't feel like I'm being deprived during the day.
