    My NUT requires 70-90 grams per day. (I shoot for at least 80)

    It depends on hight and weight, I am 5'3 and 180 now, and they told me 60-80 daily.

    Minimum 60 grams, but 75 to 85 is better. There are alot of ways to help get it while on the road. Protein bars and shakes as well as things like turkey and tuna...lots of protein in those. Good luck on your surgery!
