hell yeah worry about eating on the days you don't lift - you're body will still be looking for nutrients to replenish the muscles with.
The 2 grams of protein per 1 lbs of bw is something that many many ppl debate.. I'm of the group that says 1-1.5 is fine.
You grow when you are not in the gym and the diet is 85% of the tally
keep it clean and loaded with protein good carbs and water....
I usually have 1.5 as long as it's over 1.5 gram. Also depends on cycle cutting, usually closer to 2 grams bulking closer to 2 grams but maintaining I shoot for a lesser amt about 1 gram
