Wow that is a lot of protein. I didn't know there could be too mcuh but I guess a calorie is a calorie when it comes down to it. How many cals do you get in tho Deb?

Protein goal consumption is 60-70 calories every day. It seems like alot but theres where optimal choices are essential. Example, one piece of shrimp has like 5-7 grams of protein. Eat 10 and your finished for the day!

What Sawyer would call me on LOST: ladybug

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."

Some day I will be able to add more fruit to my diet. Right now I am not able to eat enough to do that and get all my protein in. But some day!!

I don't think that's too much protein. And I don't think too much protein will keep you from losing weight unless you are eating too many calories.
