defibvt 348 Posted February 23, 2015 From what I have read is 30 grams. Otherwise your body just can not absorb it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fawnb71 49 Posted February 23, 2015 I think the question is more along the line of how many ounces can or should one consume...at 8 weeks, I believe i was between 2 an d4 ounces of anything. the amount really depended on what I was eating. yogurt, 2-3 ounces, Soup i could almost get 4, cottage cheese or any other cheese was closer to 2. you are on the right track. keep it up!

JamieLogical 8,710 Posted February 23, 2015 I'm almost 6 months post-op and I can still only do between 2 and 4 ounces of meat at a time, depending on what type of meat and how it's prepared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrob04 10 Posted February 23, 2015 For eight weeks post op I think you are right on track! Keep doing your best to be the best you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Better than dead 19 Posted February 28, 2015 You are ok with that amount, but i would suggest not hitting the feeling ill point for numerous reasons; develop good habits, dont stretch your sleeve, etc.... Enjoy being full quickly now and dont push it unnecessarily. Remember you are in a honeymoon phase the first 9 months or so. Loose all you can now while ot is easiest.

Rovobay 920 Posted March 1, 2015 grams of Protein per meal? 30 grams, more than that your body doesn't absorb it all (as studies say) ounces of high Protein food? at 8 weeks out 2-3 ounces of meat such as chicken or tuna (which is roughly 30g!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CJSLEEVE 25 Posted March 1, 2015 I think you're on the right track. And with chicken, for instance, 4oz can give you 23g of Protein.< /p> I liked to melt a little cheese on top to kick it up to 30g. But just stop eating as soon as you feel full. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skikyd 165 Posted April 15, 2015 Eat what you can without being uncomfortable. If it 2-3 oz, it's 2-3 oz! Do not force anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
