Default High protein, low carb, low fat diet?

How much protein should I be trying to stick to each day with such a diet?
Any recommended foodstuffs?



I eat about 1g per lb of bodyweight - 120g. I also lift weights 3 x per
week, so I'm looking to build muscle, which requires more protein...


"while a number of athletes and body builders believe that a
high-protein diet is crucial to their physical performance and training,
Metges and Barth found no evidence in the scientific literature to
support this assumption."
