He seems to be responsive to thoughtful feedback, and he may listen to you and end up making something even closer to what you (and now I) want if you tell him that stuff (if you haven't already).

Your mentioning protein intake compelled me to research protein needs and notice that I'm not getting nearly enough of it. 150 g/day for a tall, exercising male; that's the equivalent of 20 oz of steak! So, thank you.

From his recommendation, 148 g/day, or 115 g/day using the .64 g/day/lb figure. The equivalent of 16 oz of steak every day does sound a little more attainable.

By which I mean, I'm going to start taking whey protein rather than spending all of my money on delicious steaks, even if that does sound like a great life.

I rotate my non shake meals between eggs, fish, shellfish, beef, and chicken.
