A member asked:

How many grams of protein should i eat daily? i am trying to lose weight and already lost 15 pounds. but now it has stalled. currently i eat around 35gm of protein. also, what should be my carb intake?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

How tall and how: active are you? What is your weight?? Your intake is calculated based on your daily energy requirement. 35 gms of protein will seem like a low amount for an average sized female
