    protein questions

    In the journals I have been reading I see alot about protein drinks and alot of eggs are consumed for breakfast and I would like to know why? I currently drink a MRP byMet-Rx for breakfast and other than taking a fatburner I don't do any supplementing.
    Was curious if that might help my progress?
    Thanks

    For adequate protein. Most of us strive for 1 -2 grams of protein per pound of body weight.

    Do you know your caloric intake? Also what is your meal breakdown for the day? How much protein, carbs, fat?

    I had left out a pepsi on my previous post, I know I am not eating
    enough, I am not sure which foods would be best i.e FF, low carb,
    high carb, low cal. I am planning on working some skirt steak and beans into my diet on weekends.

    Proper nutrition I suppose.
    Really trying to get to a good reasonable weight that I will be able maintain on a regular basis. I let myself get unfit and I don't like it. ( was always an athlete)
    I have never been a big or heavy eater, I simply stopped working out and started drinking to much beer. Now back to working out backing off beer and would like to get my diet tweeked to where I can lose the weight now and be able to keep it off. If that means learning to eat more meals or adding some protein shakes I don't mind. I have been eating the same way for several years.
    Thanks
