I need help getting more protein in my diet. I weigh about 305 lbs. and I wanna get about 1.5 g per lb. of mass, so really I need about 375 grams per day(250 lbs. of mass is what I go by, not the 305 b/c I don't count fat as mass).

Right now this is what I eat...

Breakfast-

2 cups of oatmeal
4 eggs scrambled
2 pieces of whole weat toast, Dry

Mid-morning snack-

Banana, apple, or orange

Lunch-

2 pieces of grilled chicken with a salad with about half a cup of ranch dressing


WORKOUT-

Creatine
100% Whey shake post workout

mid afternoon snack-

protein bar of some sort, something high in protein and complex carbs

dinner-

usually varies, something to do with beef, chicken, or some other meat. I trie to stay away from pork, but being from the south, it is hard not to and this usually goes with some sort of baked potatoe, or roasted potatoe with brcolli or green beans

night-time snack around 9:00 pm

PB sandwhich on whole weat, or another piece of fruit

so how is my diet? any ideas on how to tweak it? and is there anywhere on this site that has a srt of a nutirion counter to know what has what and how much you are taking in.

for the calorie count I use fitnesshub.com just pay attention to the proportions when you enter them I usually get the labels off my foods and match them up. Diet looks good my breakfeast usually consist of 7 scrambled eggs and 1 cup of oatmeal your mid morning snack you need to throw some protien in there may be hard boiled eggs, tuna or a protien shake, I don't have time to sit down and eat my midmorning so I drink 1.5 scoop of whey mixed with milk and 1 cup of oatmeal, lunch looks good other than I don't see a carb there other than that looks pretty good to me.

I prepare all of my meals the night before as long as you can keep the shake cold(tastes horrible if it isn't cold I freeze my bottled water and put my shakes with it in a small cooler) it is perfect on the go, protien bars is a nother one. If you have access to a microwave for lunch brown rice or potatoes if not see what you can do with this list

I weigh 190lbs but i take in 220g to make sure i'm getting enough.

That's WAY too much protien! The average joe needs 0.8grams per kg of bodyweight. Double this if you must, but more than that and you are just making expensive pee.

Smart arse,

I am used to everyone using the lbs to g ratio of protein intake.

Not wise to flame a mod
Flaming??? He DID say kilograms (though I must admit I was thrown at first too), but there's really no need for name calling.
Um... oh yeah, please don't ban me

In relation to the ratio of protein to bodymass - I'm way under par. I've been taking about 40g after each workout session (I have a three way split, so thrice a week). That's only 120g a week! I think I've found one of my major problems...

Be sure to count the protien in your foods, including pastas, bread, etc.

Looking at this post I am thinking I am missing something. Using the formula of taking in 1.2 gm of protein and 4 gms of carbs, for bulking anyway, that is a one huge amount of calories.

I weight about 200, so at 4 cal/gm for protein and carbs, that would come to nearly 4000 calories a day! Not including fat!

Does this seem right?

Looking at the chicken I eat makes me think. You people recommend chicken breast and beef and stuff but if I eat other parts of chicken, not neccesarily in one peice, but cut up and stewed, I should get the same protein right? (Wing, back, liver, and breast etc.)
