A member asked:
I am an endomorph, will i become very lean if i have around 1.5g of protein per pound of bodyweight & about 150g of slow digesting carbs per day?

No: Protein does not help one lose weight. Weight loss is achieved through exercise, minimizing carbs, controlling portion size, no snacking, no sodas of any kind, no bread, pasta, cheese, etc.
