Yes, the calculation of half of one's ideal weight comes from me via Rosedale.  His formula is actually a little more complicated, but I think my simplification works 90% of the time.  You might add a few more grams if you're into heavy exercise.  But adding much more will only cause your body to convert the excess to glucose and then fat.
