Lady VS 1,147 Posted July 16, 2013 Your doctor and or nutritionist should have provided you with that information but 60 to 80 is the norm. Good luck. 1 mrsto reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SolracSpree 133 Posted July 16, 2013 Just got back from the doc she said 60 - 80. Yesterday I had over 100grams and she told me not to do that again as it can lead of kidney stones and possibly kidney failure 0_0 1 Lady VS reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loumanc82 2 Posted July 17, 2013 I asked my doctor about the protine today, hes advised me that i dont focus on gettin the protine in until after my first band adjustment, he said obviously its good if i can get protine in my diet but its not essential at the moment as its the healing process not the weight loss process, although i will loose weight at this stage.
