I have been to several informational meetings and they told us to eat three meals a day and drink 64 ounces of water daily. We were told to eat 4 ounces every meal to include 2 ounces of protein, one ounce of vegetables, and one ounce of starch. Always eat protein first. Should consume 60 to 80 grams of protein daily. We were also told that we may hit a plateau around 9 to 12 months and that we should increase our exercise. My surgery date is scheduled for 3/2/22 and I am excited and anxious. God bless.
