1Lb ground beef= 16ounces?

[theoak01]

Im adding 1lb of ground beef a day into my diet as I feel I need extra protein,now if I have this right 1lb is 16 ounces which after cooking works out to 949 cals and 86 grams of protein,does this sound right?

sure hope so,this shit is dirt cheap and I need to grow

thanks bro green to you

what do you think of my diet being 40% pro,45%fat,15% carb? fats are mainly efa (anpb) or the beef which is lean

I don't touch beef to much. I'm more about tuna, turkey, and chicken.

I was but I wasnt getting enough calories,I still include tuna as two of my meals but eating meals consisting of only protein with little to no fat/carbs had my scraping to get 2000cals in now Im pulling 3000 in 5 meals with the beef added

16oz raw = like 12oz cooked

Thats right it wont be 16oz when done cooking, plus you can drain fat from it, so the calories would be impossible to tell.

I was raised on beef and refuse to eliminate it from my diet.

BEEF, its whats for dinner!
