    Um, that wouldn't be difficult to do. Not by a long shot.

    Quick & dirty example:

    Breakfast
    Dunkin Donuts Egg White Turkey Sausage flatbread: 280 calories, 19g protein
    1 scoop Protein powder: 114, 24

    Lunch:
    McDonald's Grilled Chicken Classic, no mayo: 300, 27
    McDonald's Fruit & Yogurt Parfait: 150, 4

    Pre-workout snack:
    2 scoop protein powder: 228, 48
    1 scoop maltodextrin powder: 120, 0

    Dinner:
    Chicken breast, 8 ounces: 250, 52
    Bush's Baked Beans, 1/2 cup: 140, 6
    Broccoli, steamed: 40, 0


    Total: 1622 calories, 180g protein.

    I used to consume around that much protein but I have toned it down quite a bit. Like he said, not dificult to do^

    I used to use those machines thinking they would shrink my thighs... they didn't. I think they are a waste of time, and lifting weights has a much better result: squats and lunges with dumbells is what I do :)
