BBdoodle 483 Posted October 7, 2012 I'm not fond of the Protein Shakes either..... I just measure out enough for 64 grams per shake, I have the shake for either brakfast or a mid morning snack, my surgeon says miminum of 64 grams of Protein a day. Any other protein is bonus I use Isopure dutch cholocate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kisersassy 369 Posted October 7, 2012 My nut said that our bodies can only absorb 30 grams of Protein in a sitting so any extra that siting is wasted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And would like you to get it from food not by drinking it or eating Protein Bars. They are good for when you can't have a meal not instead of Surgery Anniversary 7/30/12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
