"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
lots of protein, kidneys hurt

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Anyway, I believe protein has nothing to do with it, can you tell us your diet? It could be MANY reason.
You know don't assume it is the protein.
How long have this pain gone?
Have you been consuming this much protein consistently? (taking 100 today and 80 the next day don't count!!)
It'll go away. If it is, I hear rumor say it could be kidney stone.
I don't have to be at school until late, so I just have a protein shake for breakfast (20 grams of protein.)
About two hours later I go out to lunch and have some steak. (60 grams of protein)
When I come home I have another protein shake.
For dinner I have some chicken (40 grams).
Like i said before, I think its psychosomatic.

Excellent! He's right, protein needs water to be digest. No water=no protein being digest=waste of protein.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

When protien gets metabolized, it gets broken down into toxic byproducts--one of them being amonia. This, in turn, causes both your liver and kidneys to work overtime to eliminate all that crap out of your body. Ulitmately, your liver and kidneys are going to fail due to the stress that you placed upon it.
Some people on the Atkins diet have also experinced similar problems as well making complaints that thier kidneys hurt after being on a high protien diet.
I think that the amount of protien is just too much for you. And remember that toomuch protien in your diet can lead to liver and kidney damage.
Anyway 1 gram of protein per lb of body weight isn't very high at all. I take 2 grams of protein per lb of body weight everyday and I've done that for the majority of a year and had no pain. Still that doesn't mean it's not affecting you.
I do think more water is needed and drink it whenever you can. If it still hurts after a few days of drinking a lot more water then cut back by 20 or so grams and see if that helps.
I've in the past have consumed up to 400 grams in one day and felt fine BUT I always had about a BIG glass full of water by my side.
