damn sounds like a lot of protein. i'm curious to see what my friend, who is a 4th year med student, has to say about this. i find that we disagree on a lot of this stuff, mainly because of differing perspectives and priorities.
i will keep this thread updated with questions and thoughts as i go along.
thought 1; protein is expensive. i've never noticed this before cause i didn't have to eat so much and cause i was rich, but for high quality protein it generally costs about $1 for 100 calories, whereas i can get 300 or more calories of carbs for $1. i just went to an indian food buffet, i figured this would be cost effective but really at $10, I am guessing I ate 1200+ calories with 2/3 a pound of chicken and a lot of calories coming from sauce, so this is OKAY at best.
