You do not need to eat a gram of protein per pound of bodyweight, all you need to do is eat a gram of protein for how much lean mass you have.

Protein feeds the muscle not fat.
 
You don’t need a gram of protein for lb of lean mass at all either. It was media hyped bs by fake natty roidcels to push the idea that protein is really what got them jacked.

Medically speaking, 0.88g per kilogram of body weight is the RDA for protein to sustain daily life. This means a 220lb or a 100k male only requires 88g of protein for bodily functions. For gym goers add in an extra 15-30g of protein, you are good. Excess is overkill for the kidneys.

Don't even need that much, I've eaten way less with no difference to strength levels or gym progression. Only difference is your muscles will be more saturated with amino acids at higher protein intake. If you wanted to look big for a temporary period of time you would just eat protein and carbs. For actual muscle growth though it's irrelevant, which is why the studies don't show strength differences in protein supplementation beyond a super low threshold
