Do you know how much protein is in your diet?

Many of us use supplements to assist with our training plans but I'm interested to know how many people here take protein and how many actually work out how much is in their diet in the first place.
It seems logical to me that you need to work this out first (as well as how much is required) before spending money on expensive supplements but I know of so many people that don't have a clue yet happily spend their money on Maximuscle products (something I've done in the past before giving myself a talking to).
For sure supplements have their place but are most of us just wasing our hard earned ?

I would also tick the "Yes, and I don't need any supplements" box. Unless you call low-fat mozzarella a supplement.
Good stuff TonyW43. Looks like you've got a full on training schedule and eat pretty well too. I think it's proof positive that many of us probably don't need as much additional protein as the manufacturers think we should take e.g. 90 grammes per day for Maximuscle Promax :shock:
@DaveyL. That clearly depends on how much mozzarella you're consuming
My thoughts too
I weigh over 80kg and I get about 70g of protein a day
