Bufflehead 6,358 Posted December 16, 2013 minimum 75 g Protein.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McButterpants 2,846 Posted December 16, 2013 80-90 grams but doc would like to see 100 grams. Yeah, that's not going to happen. I'm getting 70-80 pretty consistently - I'm just over 4 weeks post op Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shells_Almost_There 357 Posted December 17, 2013 My NUT uses a formula - times your weight by .3 to find out the daily Protein target. So a 250 lb person needs 75 grams, a 200 lb person needs 60 grams, and so on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

penman53 493 Posted June 9, 2014 90 for me, I think ladies are a little less if I'm not mistaken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forsythia 882 Posted June 10, 2014 My nutritionist recommends at least 60 for everyone but wants us all to get 80 to 100 grams. I get right around 96 or so grams on a good day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greensleeve 457 Posted June 10, 2014 How do you get in that much Protein without shakes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forsythia 882 Posted June 11, 2014 Never said I don't drink shakes. I drink two 30 g Premier Protein shakes a day. Sometimes I will do an Isopure tea instead of one of the shakes, which was 40 g. I get the other 30 odd grams from food. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
music1618 879 Posted June 11, 2014 Also remember it depends on your activity level. The more active you are the more Protein you need. I shoot for 130 without the use of shakes. I use egg whites in my drinks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
