If most of your vitamins and proteins are coming from pills and powders than your kidney's and liver are taking a pounding. Stop it now.. those things aren't easily replaceable...

LOL - what gave you the impression I got my protein and vitamins from pills and powders? I consume about 1900 cals on training days and about 1650 cals on non training days, split respectively like so: (240 was just an arbitrary number i threw out there)
Protein: 220 grams
Carbs: 140 grams
Fat: 52 grams
Non-training days:
Protein: 185 grams
Carbs: 115 grams
Fat: 50 grams
I have 6 meals on training days which consists of 2 protein shakes for a total of about 60 grams of protein. On non training days, it is a single shake which accounts for 30 grams of protein.
I make up the rest of my carbs, proteins and fats with nuts, salad veggies, chicken, eggs, oats, sweet potato and am going to try for the first time quinoa.
