I am now 16 days post op... Almost 3 weeks. How much protien should I be trying to get in?? I am having a hard time with this!

I am just three weeks out and I am also having the same problem...I am lucky if I can get 45 grams...and I am really trying. I believe they want us to have around 60 -70 grams at this point.

I'm with you guys. I'm a little over 3 weeks post op. the most protein I can get in is about 50g. I'm trying my best, I'm hoping as time goes by I will be able to consume more protein.

It is so hard! I'm trying to get all of mine from food & not shakes.. That is what my surgeon wanted me to do. Idk if I will ever make it to 60.

I'd you want to get your Protein in eating, try egg whites. 1 egg white has 6g protein and you can eat an egg white an hour. It won't hurt you nor will it slow you down or stretch your sleeve. It's the purest form of protein you can get and there are no carbs or fat.
