How Many Fat Grams Should Your Day Consist Of?



Recommended Posts

Was wondering what amount of fat grams should your daily intake be?

My surgeon and NUT recommended about 10-15% of calories should come from fat. I'm typically around 600 cals (I'm 7.5 wks out) so I'm usually aiming for 10-15g daily. But, frankly, I'm more focused on Protein (80+ grams) and carbs (under 30g). I dot stress as much when/if I go over fat as long as it's not crazy.

This is probably one of those things that differs from NUT to NUT, but I believe I was told no more than 25g/day. I rarely hit that.

My nut said no more than 30 grams if fat, 30-60 grams of crabs, 60+ grams of Protein. I'm abel to stay within all the guidelines except 64 oz of Water a day. I struggle with that one.

Only 25-30 grams of fat per day :( I eat more than that just at Breakfast. Will have to try harder. Haven't got to trying only 3-ounce portions at each meal yet.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
