Reply With Quoteyou could always get more protein by adding a whey protein powder into your diet... good to see you're trying to get your protein from real food though... tuna, cottage cheese and egg whites in a carton are other ways to get your protein intake up...

I guess I should mention as well I'm 5'11" and about 180 lbs. I'd like to get to 170. By my BF scale (I know this isnt extremely accurate) its about 16%. From what I've read, I need to add about 30-40 g of protein daily to my diet, is that about right?
