How much Protein?

I was just looking at a formula on line to see how much protein should I be taking in each day with an active lifestyle. It said take your weight ( 165 ) divided by 2.2 165/2.2 and then multiply that by 1.2 165/2.2 X 2.2 = 90 grams of protein. I am looking at what I took in today for protein and I fall way short.

Instant oatmeal this morning 8.5 grams
Muscle Milk 25 grams
Can of tuna 26 grams
Egg Noodles 7 grams

My lunch had vegetables which had some protein but not alot. So in total lunch and dinner 66.5 grams of protein before dinner and I usually dont have the muscle milk which i bought this morning.

I gotta step it up to be able to lose weight and build muscle. Gotta find out where to get it ( protein) from.

This morning

I was to wake up and work out but I did not. I was way too tired. I am going to get a workout in tonight. I am either going to play tennis tonight or do a p90x workout.

Ate clean today. Oatmeal for breakfast, noodles, tuna, and vegetables for lunch. Mandarin oranges for dessert.

dinner and after dinner workput

Ate clean all day today until dinner which is normal. Wound up @ shanes bbq. Had some pulled pork and ribs which were fine but had mac and cheese and frnch fries. Not good. So came home and tennis practice was cancelled so I skipped rope(500) and then did some arm exercises. Not counting a day but at least feel like I acomplished something today!
