i have carsb in my diet, i eat corn and other vegies in the morning and also brown rice. also get bits and pieces elsewhere, i cut carbs and felt my energy go dwon so i put them back in.
so going off the formula i would need around 286grams or protein a day!? I definately wouldnt have been getting that.
Im adding in weights 3 times a week and hit the gym today.
This may be a ridiculous question however: If i load up on protein rich meals a day, could i still put on fat? Ie. can unused protein/calories still be stored as fat? For instance if i ate a lot more whey powder and protein, does your body just expel the stuff it doesnt need or will it still store it as fat eventually?
Also, what is the max amount of protein your body can take in in one meal?

thanks heaps for the help so far
