Hi Everyone!

This is my first post but seeing as I have only recently been "diagnosed" a "protein type" I thought I'd weigh in, hopefully my contribution is meaningful!

I have been working with a holistic nutritionist for the past month who tested me to see what "Metabolic Type" I was. I had not heard about metabolic typing before. Turns out I am a "protein type" which means that I need to skew my daily food intake towards eating a higher % of protein than anything else. I have found that I generally feel full longer when I eat the protein too. Might be something to consider to find out how much protein is best for you.

So, I havbe been looking into my protine. The web has protine calcuators and I checked with my doc. For my hight and weight I need AT LEAST 85g of protine a day. IO have started drinking whey protine shakes. They have 20g of protine in each shake. So I am drinking one before my daily workout and one after. I am also keeping track of how much protine I am taking in with food and it is not nearly enough. I am hoping to see an improvement with the shakes.
