My thread

^ In my thread, I asked the same thing. Pintoca said of course you do. It's near the bottom if you'd like to read.

Hope this helps a bit.

cheers buddy i just wanted to make sure as i never used to and thought this might be where the extra cals were coming from.

I too am cutting and appreciate that mate have done a lot of work in excel to get the right diet with the right foods and if this was not right i would have to have started again.

If you're consuming the standard 1.0g/pound then you can count all sources of protein(assuming a normal mixed bodybuilder diet). If you're consuming substantially less than that you can look at the PCDAAS and multiply your protein consumption by the the PCDAAS score. That means dairy and eggs are counted one for one, beef protein counts at .92 and most vegetable sources are .4 or .5 per gram.
