So I've been trying to bulk up, and find it really hard to get the "recommended" amount of protein everyday. I'm 165 lb. (a rather skinny 165), and "they" recommend about 200g or so of protein everyday, but on a day like today where I had one of the biggest protein days ever since I started counting, it wasn't even close to enough.
It went something like..
Bagel - 10g
Deli sandwich - 30g
Protein shake - 40g
Pasta and chicken - 40g
Apple + peanut butter - 10g
Protein shake - 40g
Total = ~170g
Should I just throw in another protein shake for good measure or something? Two a day is kind of a lot for me, and three seems like it'd be pushing it quite a bit. Or do I even really need that much protein?
