So I'm on weightloss journey. My starting weight was 363, and I'm currently down to 318, and I feel really good about my progress. I'm focusing on high protein and calorie counting. But I've been researching and getting mixed signals about how many grams of protein I need in a day. Currently, I'm not doing much in the way of exercise. Between work and home, I stay decently active. I do 45 minutes of seated cycling daily, no strength training or anything like that. So taking all of that into account, how much protein do I need? I just upped my intake from 100g to 150g. But I read an article saying excess protein gets stored as fat. Now, is this true, even if I'm in a defecit? I'm currently doing 1700 calories a day, which is about 1000 cal defecit daily at my current weight. Will excess proteing still get stored as fat, or do I even need this much considering I'm not doing strength training?
Anything helps, thank you for listening!
