Hi Doc,

I’m a 43 year old man at about 215lbs at the end of my LP and have downloaded “The Bridge”. I don’t like to eat the large amount of food necessary to get enough protein. So what percent of protein should I just drink down in whey concentrate shake form, then “eat” the rest?

Keep up the great work!

Jason

Hey I’m Barabbas,

You can start at doing 2 shakes per day with 2 scoops of whey per shake. That’s about half your daily protein intake and that’s fine.
