    Do you mean I am wrong?

    I am sure that I would need more than 40 something g of protein a day?

    No no, i was telling the person who is giving you wrong information that she is wrong.

    You should be eating 198 grams of Protein a day, so eat whatever wholefoods you can with high protein amounts and just drink your BFs Whey to make up any remaining grams.

    if she was eating around 200g of protein a day she'd either go over on calories or be eating nothing but protein shakes.


    Its only she should 100 grams of protein a day.

    This poor girl is going to be more confused than before she posted with all these conflicting answers.

    200g of protein is very high and not necessary.

    Protein is overrated. It's important, don't get me wrong, but don't feel like you have to have chicken breast and eggs with every meal or you will look like a walking bag of fat and skin.

    If you are lifting weights and eating at a sensible deficit that is enough to ensure you won't burn muscle. I aim for 100g of protein a day as it's more than feasible with healthy eating. If I don't hit it, so what. Aim for an amount that's realistic for you.
