eating protein on an empty stomach while dieting, how bad is it?

[liftsiron]

I dont want my protein converted into glucose as i am trying to diet again (i think im about 1400/day below maintenance. i need about 4000 and am eating about 2600 or so).

What all can i do to keep my protein as protein? should i only eat it 15-30 minutes after i eat real foods, should i not eat it if i haven't eaten within 4 hours, or what. What all can/should i do (aside from post this on the diet board).

Your protein on an empty stomach converting to glucose is a bunch of bullshit IMO. If your in a state of ketosis you will get some amino acid conversion to glucose. But the assumption that pure whey will all convert to glucose is nonsense. To slow absorbtion of whey adding some flax oil as bodybyfiniplex suggested is a good idea.
