  I was going to say the same thing. I can’t imagine the shits that would give you.

    Probably wouldn’t get to that point, it would be like in Seven where Gluttony’s insides burst.

      That certainly is a DRASTIC change

  They might be referencing the rough math for daily protein consumption. It works out to about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight for men and half a gram per pound for women.

  Or they could be a bat

    why did you mix grams and pounds

      On US nutritional labels fats, carbs, and proteins are listed in grams, but we generally measure everything in pounds.

      When calculating your macro nutrition for weight gain the general recommendation comes out to about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. This is just a coincidence, but makes finding out how much protein you need to gain muscle mass pretty easy if you know how much you weigh and given that all of our labels have that info in grams.

      This is a pretty common calculation for people who track protien intake in the US, since most people weigh themselves in pounds, and most nutritional information is provided in grams.

      For the same reason they still use pounds for anything.

      Because my gram always makes me gain the pounds with the food she cooks :)

    A gram per pound is overshooting it quite a bit unless you’re a vegan not minding your protein quality intake. The maximum effective protein intake is ~1.6g/kg (0.72g/lbs), more than that will just go to “waste” (energy/energy storage). If you’re steroids the limit is higher, but there’s currently no exact number on it.

      “Energy storage” generally meaning “fat,” for the Americans in the audience.
