I'm 17 years old and weigh about 160lbs.
In the morning, I take some whey protein mixed with milk: 30g
I have eggs with breakfast: 7g
For lunch I have a lean cusine: 13g
I drink a protein shake with it: 20g
For dinner I have chicken or steak: 20-30g
I drink a protein shake with it: 20g
Now I think that is a lot of protein I'm taking. HOwever that adds up to just 120 grams. Where can I put in more protein?

i try to get protien whenever i can, but i dont go all obsessive about it...if one day i only get 160, it dont matter... i get anywhere between 130-180 grams per day... and yes, i am building muscle... so the hell with the supplement companies claiming you have to eat outrageous amounts of protien to build muscle...

Well, I personally eat 3000 calories a day, divided up into six 500 calorie meals. In each of those meals I have about 35 grams of protein. I eat too much protein about 200 grams and I only weigh 160. I take protein shakes in at night, I also eat a bowl of cottage cheese at every meal. Here are some easy meals that have a good amount of protein:
1 Bagel- 11 g
1 cup of Dannon Fat Free Yogurt- 8 grams
1 half pint skim milk- 8 grams
Total- 27 grams, 500 cal
1 can of pop top tuna-20g
2 slices of fat free cheese- 10g
2 slices whole wheat bread- 8g
Total- 38 grams, 350 cal
If all else fails--Tuna+Cottage Cheese= Big ProteinOne pound at a time...
