I think Kristina means 25 oz of meat.    Meat has 7 grams of protein per ounce,
which is 175 grams of protein.

If you go back through the archives to the discussions on daily protein
requirements, you will see that there is no established knowledge on what is
optimal and what is excessive.

I'm sure that my own protein consumption is what Rosedale would find excessive,
and I continue to lose weight.

And, if you go to the Atkins site, I'm sure you will find documentation
debunking the "excess protein hurts the kidneys" scare.
