How do you get your protein in a day

It been so long with NUT on how to get in 78 gm if protein a day and I was wonder how do you do your meals on getting the protein. My sleeve date is the 19 of June . I remember Dr. Cooper ( my surgeon ) saying 3 meals a day. On here I been hearing protein drinks count as a meal, then it would be hard staying at 4oz a meal (2oz protein ) I can't find my paper where we went over it on the protein part. Any help please for this lame brain....

Some good ideas for me. I have got to get a program to help me keep track of everything on one page. I have not been faithful about that since I have been eating solid foods. I had my surgery on (gastric sleeve) on March 15th and I have lost 95 pounds. Part of that was due to the 6 months of dieting before the surgery. I have got to start a REGULAR exercise program with people that can assist with my ( and most of us) "problem areas. I appreciate the forum and all the help I can get.

Isopure is a liquid (GNC) that has 40g Protein, 160 Cals, and 0 Carbs. I like them better than shakes usually. I'm burned out on both of them right now, but when I'm having difficulty getting protein in, then I will force it down over an hour or two.

Well I been getting in most of my protein through food, besides chicken, Greek yogurt , fish, turkey burgers , I have been eating different types of beans and keeping my total meal at 4oz.. There are times that I fall short so I do drink a protein shake Ensure which I don't like but will drink it, then I have whey protein drink mix that's not to bad.. But I try to make my meals count with protein, I do mix things up so I don't get burnt out on it, but so far so good.
