amount of protein v. body weight

I know the general rule of thumb is to get 70-100 grams per day of protein but I was wondering if a larger person would lose more efficiently at the higher end of the range for protein. Basically I'm wondering if you weigh more should you have more protein? Thanks so much in advance. Denise (wt 344, 7 wks post op, typically getting around 85 gms per day)
