[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am in my early 40s, fairly skinny, but after three kids am hoping to get stronger and get rid of fat and get more muscular.  I keep reading about tracking macros and I was told by one of those online calculators that I need to be taking in a lot more protein than I currently do.  I don't really need to cut calories as I eat healthy.  And I am not trying to lose weight.

But I hate the way protein shakes taste.

So my question is, what happens if I don't increase my protein by that much?  Do I just build muscle slower?  Or do I hit a plateau and not build additional muscle?

Not trying to look like a bodybuilder.  Just more tone and trying to be more healthy by cutting my body fat...[/quote]

I drink Fairlife - their chocolate and strawberry/banana, both high in protein, low in carbs and sugar.  Have you tried either?  I drink mine in the morning after my coffee, before my workout.

While I agree that eating real food is the way to go, it is sometimes hard to get in all the protein you really need for the goal you're talking about.  [/quote]
