Daily protein too high on MFP?

... what the heck does textbook mean? textbook can literally mean either good OR bad. gimme the numbers, because I'm willing to bet my LDL is lower than every IIFYM subscriber on this board.
Couldn't care less what your numbers are. And I'm guessing you realize you have no leg to stand on, since you're asking me to remember the exact numbers from eight months ago. I don't have them - my doctor does. And you are obviously being purposely obtuse as to ask what textbook means.0 -
(plant based diets helping prevent/reverse heart disease is certainly being discussed here. also what kind of food is often relatively high in saturated fat and sodium in the typical american diet?)
No, it's not. The idea of "too much protein" is what's being discussed. That is, until you tried to steer the conversation in a way you thought would be easier for you to "win."0 -

haha ok. yeah man the blood pressure looks pretty good - more power to ya!
but you realize that the average american cholesterol level is roughly 200. thus how "textbook" doesn't necessarily mean "good". it means adequate.0 -
do you believe that a person who eats whatever they want (fast food, junk food, processed foods etc) but stays within their macro goals is EQUALLY as healthy (ie: will have equally good vitals) as someone who stays within their macro limit but only eats whole foods, lots of fruits and veggies, whole grains, and avoids processed foods?
I know this argument has been had before, but I want your straight forward, no extra BS answer.
OK - I'll finally bite. I'm one of the former. My bloodwork last time I had a full physical with my doctor (June 2012)? Textbook - his word, not mine. My blood pressure a couple of weeks ago, during a routine checkup? 110 over 80. No aches or pains. So, to answer you question directly - YES.

Sara vs Coach
I've got Coach for $100. Not because he's right, but because he's the most tenacious doesn't-care-if-he's-right-gonna-argue-anyway person there is on the internet.
Eventually Sara is gonna go home and log off....or get bored.
ROFLMAO!
Sara is so extra sexy hawwwttt when she puts her foot down..just saying.

First of all, when have I said that?
Secondly....neh.....still waiting for you to actually back up your statement
I do find the site amusing though as a source of reference - maybe it's in one of the CDs he sells.

Lol, so true!! And so typical. Sad really.0 -
You yourself changed the protein setting to a %age of your calories. IMO 100-120 grams of protein is a good target for most active women.
