Are you strength training? I get between .8 and 1 g/lb. I've read it's overkill but at my calorie intake it's very doable and hasn't had a negative impact on anything. Just make sure you get enough carbs before/after too for recovery and energy and you should be good.

I am indeed strength training - 3x's a week and a karate class once a week (soon to be twice a week). I guess I'm paranoid about overeating, especially carbs. I tend to eat a medium-sized sweet potato or brown rice on lift/karate days. I've been at a bit of a plateau bodyweight-wise while food caloric intake has been relatively consistent (around 1600 cal/day) for the last few months. Strength gains have been plentiful, however, bodyweight/measurements have been about the same wit...

Gah, got cut off...bodyweight and measurements have been about the same with some +/- fluctuations here and there. Trying to determine whether I'm eating enough or not for fat loss.
