Good post Kian, but better yet, have her join & post on the Women's Forum herself & we will take good care of her there....

So I'll have to take your word on that Jen.

Get her bodyfat checked....weight is subjective and "losing weight" is not necessarily a good goal.....depending on her level of bodyfat, that may be a better goal....
And by the term "diet" that means what does she eat everyday, what times does she eat & when does she eat in relation to her daily activities like working out?? (this is important)
And what does "gym 3 days a week" entail?? Lifting, cardio only, both??
Roughly, as a guide, she wants to take in 1g of protein for each lb of BW. That is a general amount though.
As for water, she should be drinking about 1 gallon a day. more if you live somewhere really hot, or her activity level is high.
I put together a post with a TON of good threads .... called "Top Threads, Must Read" or something like that.
It has a list of sample diets and helpful info.

My wife just replaces dinner with fruit and a 60g protein shake. I know this may get some flak, but she says it works very well.
