Protein and Amount of Food Intake is very different from all I have read.

I have been visiting here alot lately and reading about different product suggestions on protein and what you consume daily and most of everything I had read indicates that lots and lots are getting a whole lot more protein than Dr. Terry's patients. My friend is 5'11" he is not allowed to have any more than 47 grams of protein a day and 3 meals only with no in between at all. I am 5'1" and I am only allowed 32 grams of protein a day. 3 meals and nothing in between. I go to bed every night with that empty feeling and wake up after not eating for 12 hours or more shaking. We are supposed to spread our meals out to at least 5 hours apart and supplement the empty feeling with water. How come our diet is so different as a lot of the time I feel I am not getting enough of anything. Please can someone help me with this. Debbie
