Hi, I'm almost 5 months out and I struggle with my protein intake. I take in around 60-80grams a day but I notice my cal intake is going up to almost 1100 a day. What r you guys taking in on average.

At almost 12 weeks post-op, I'm averaging between 550 and 650 calories a day. My protein intake is between 80 and 90 grams/day. I still supplement with a protein shake every morning (chocolate Muscle Milk lite...only 100 calories in 8 oz, and 15 grams protein), and have a Gelatein 20 every day or two (4 oz has just 88 calories, and 20 grams of protein). The majority of what I eat, throughout the day, is protein based, because my capacity is still relatively limited (I can only eat around 2 oz of dense protein (meat) at a time). If I manage to get 2 oz of meat down, I may have a couple small bites of a non-starchy veggie....I never make it to anything starchy.

I consume between 600 and 1000 a day depending on what i eat, how much i work out and weather i want more protein for that day. I get between 60-90 grams of protein.

I drink muscle milk light the powder so I can add a little strawberries or blueberries and I drink muscle milk the ready made shake. This is the only brand so far that I love. I can eat 3-4oz dense protein without problem but when I add starch it is not so good. I also work twice a week doing a kick boxing class for 45mins. I work 16hrs in a hospital on the other days and I am always on my feet. How is everyone handling their carbs. I treat myself once in a while so I don't over do it

struggle with my Protein intake. 60-80grams a day calories up to almost 1100 a day average.
