how much protein should i consume

[padster-k]

Hi all, new to this so please bear with me
i have been going to the gym for around 7 years now, been doing ok until recently, i have piled the pounds on as i have given up smoking and indulged in the sweeter things in life!! anyways i have knuckled down and am now back training 4 times a week, my problem is i dont seem to be losing my fat around my stomach, and boobs, no matter how hard i train, i have a hunger like no other due to the no smoking and would like to know what sort of food intake i should be looking at ie how much protein, carbs etc, i have cut the crap out of my diet now.
im 6"2, and 225lbs, god knows what my body fat is but all my weight seems to be around my torso.
suggestions would be appreciated.

Head over to the Diet Section and post your diet. That's the place to start.
Good luck!
