Protein...how many scoops do you use per day?

[ForceFan27]

I weigh 165 pounds. I know the whole 1.25-1.50 grams of protein per pd of body weight thing, but I am wondering how many scoops of protein you use per day (assuming each scoop is 22-25 g).

I currently hit the scoop 5 to 6 time throughout the day. You?

Just one scoop after working out and the others come from food.

I know, but just the thought of another bite of chicken makes me gag.

wow 5-6 ? ?

I do 3 or so. 5 seems excessive over real food, trade out 2 of those for a can of tuna.

beef? Fish? turkey? Beans with brown rice?

Like I said, I weigh about 160-162 and think I'm around 16-17% bf. I would like to drop to 10-12% in by mid September. I am just wondering if that many shakes is helping or hurting. I want to lose as little muscle as possible.

1 casein, 4 whey thats about 125 grams from shakes...kinda high

but then I do get another 275 from food...
