Not so well......scale moving wrong direction. Trying to find that magical balance of protien & calories.

Mr. OD, can I get by on 200 grams protien daily over the 5-6 meals? I think you & I discussed my lean mass was around 260-270. I've been doing around 250 per day. I keep wanting to dodge that last protien
shake around 9:30 or so at night but its right after my lifting and I'm scared I'll mess up. (My bench continues to gain 5 lbs per session.

That is a working weight, not a max.)

Also, is all the upper body work spent on a speedbag workout going to hurt my lifting? I'm loving the speedbag. Its a world of cardio I didn't know about.

I don't want all that soreness from the speedbag to be a sign of canibalism or something

I'm very happy w/ the lifting if I could just get the scale to move down a LITTLE. I was supposed to be at 460 by end of January. Well, I'm 468.
2 pound loss in 1 month.
