feb27bandwoman 112 Posted July 7, 2012 My MD suggests 60 grams per day. I have a high Protein Shake once a day to make sure I get that number. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sojourner 2,446 Posted July 7, 2012 There is a formula to determine what your daily Protein goal should be...and that range of number of daily Protein grams should have been given to you during your pre op nutrition education. It would be helpful to contact your surgeon's office or nutritionist to let you know what your goal should be. If you don't get enough protein, it will slow your weight loss.

Rojasanoll 920 Posted July 7, 2012 my information from my nutritionist was 60-70g of Protein. I just feel better pushing 80-90g of protein. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
