My dr. Says between 60-80 grams of protein. How about you?.

My NUT told me 60 grams...I will try for more if I can.

minimum 75 g protein.

80-90 grams but doc would like to see 100 grams. Yeah, that's not going to happen.

I'm getting 70-80 pretty consistently - I'm just over 4 weeks post op

My NUT uses a formula - times your weight by .3 to find out the daily protein target. So a 250 lb person needs 75 grams, a 200 lb person needs 60 grams, and so on.

Thank you I will calculate for my protein numbers:)

90 for me, I think ladies are a little less if I'm not mistaken

My nutritionist recommends at least 60 for everyone but wants us all to get 80 to 100 grams. I get right around 96 or so grams on a good day.

How do you get in that much protein without shakes?

Never said I don't drink shakes. I drink two 30 g Premier Protein shakes a day. Sometimes I will do an Isopure tea instead of one of the shakes, which was 40 g. I get the other 30 odd grams from food.

Also remember it depends on your activity level. The more active you are the more protein you need. I shoot for 130 without the use of shakes. I use egg whites in my drinks.

Can you tell me more about the Isopure tea?? Does it taste like tea, is it chalky, easy to take down?? I love tea but hate these shakes 6 days post op!
