I was told a minimum of 80 grams each day.

60 is the goal I was given for a minimum.

70-100 g a day

60-70

60 to80 daily

there is actually aformula based on how much you currently weigh, to determine how much protein to take in daily,butI dont know what it is.They discussed itat our support goup one ,onth and the dr told us the formula,but i wasnt paying attention to it

Minimum 60 if you were not working out and did not have an active job. But your minimum increases with height, original muscle mass, rate you are working out and type.

A jump in head's first cardio/weight training stair climbing sleever will probably need to aim for minimum 80. 90 if they were already working out and such for awhile pre op.

No one told me that really, I did a bit of research on protien needs...I will see if I kept the links anywhere.

PS - that increases as you build muscle mass!!! I had a friend that had plastics after 2 years, and she went to a sports doc, did all the exact measurements, etc and was told minimally 120g/p per day.

I was told 60-70.

I was told min. 60 but try for 80
