Is 40g of protein a day enough?

I am really, really struggling to get the protein in. The only thing i like to eat at the moment is soup. I have tried adding the unflavoured protein to the soups but the unflavoured part on the tub was a lie! Yesterday i had a protein shot which caused dumping, so they are a no go for me.

What would happen if i only hit 40g protein a day until? I can just about manage half a shake and half a bottle of isopure.

Your thoughts, as always are appreciated!

  • It's normal since you're so early out. It'll get easier when the swelling goes down some. I have about decided to not even bother getting that unflavored stuff, it just sounds disgusting.

Programs are all so different! My Doc/Nut say drink those protein drinks a long as you like. We are supposed to have one every day during the losing phase... getting protein from other high quality sources is good too... but if you can't Drink it!

Yea. Very much agree.

Mine says no to liquid calories after mushies. Also they say meals, not single items foods. Funny, huh. I say if I could eat more than 3 ounces of food at a time, their theory would be great. I would LOVE to be able to get all of my calories in "meals" and no liquid. And if I ever get to the point of being able to take even 4 ounces at a time, maybe I'll give it a shot.
