Hey!When counting protein, like the typical 1 g per pound BW, should only quality protein (like animal and dairy) be counted?

It depends.Other proteins still have caloric value.I normally count all proteins, but I also go for slightly higher protein (1-1.3g). If you aim for the 1-1.3g, then as long as you get the majority of your protein from high quality sources you will be set.
