Starting pre-op protein diet tomorrow

Anyone knows how many oz of Protein am I having for each meal? They gave me so much paperwork it's overwhelming and confusing

I'm on day 11 of my two week liquid diet. My Protein Shake has 30g and my whey Protein has about 20g. I was told to get in 60-80g a day.

I was told to get 100 Protein. I drank premier ready to drink shakes and they each have 30 g so I reached it easily.

I was told 2 Protein Shakes a day or Protein Bar (breakfast and lunch), I can have 1/2 cup fruit 3x/day as a snack, unlimited non-starchy veggies. dinner consist of 3 ounces of meat (preferably lean), small salad with 2 tablespoon fat free dressing, mouse sized baked potatoe or 6 unsalted crackers, and 1/2 cup of fruit. I also have to get in 64 oz of Water. Oh yea I can drink Powerade zero, Decaf tea/coffee. To answer you question I was told 60-80g of Protein.

I start today too. I get 3 Protein Shakes under 200 calories each at least 25 Protein and less than 10 carbs. Then i get 3 ounceof lean meat, 1 cup veggies, one tennis ball size fruit, which i plan to ask if i can replace with more veggies. 1/3 cup brown rice, 1 serving of fat, i guess equal to 1/8th an avocado or a teaspoon of olive oil. They do differ greatly. Surgery 12 14 15. You too?
