evlyn1971 26 Posted January 9, 2013 My pcp recommends I get 53 g of Protein a day. Is it bad if I go over? The last three days I have gone over by at least 10g. I have not been banded yet, waiting for wl center appt. but my pcp put me on this 1410 calories a day and 53 protein. She says the more weight I loose the less risky the surgery. I don't want to mess it up. I have lost 3.6 pounds so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted January 9, 2013 I am not a dr but If you are going over the Protein but not the calories I do not see how that would be harmful. 1 LouisianaLiLi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kime-lou 648 Posted January 9, 2013 My nutritionist recommended 60 g of Protein a day or more. As long as your calories aren't going over the extra protein is great. Just make sure you are drinking enough Water.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taysidebell 176 Posted January 9, 2013 Mine says 60 to 70 Protein I would not worry, but speak to your surgeon or nutritionist next time you visit. And keep to your cup or cal guide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
