Love this! #MyBariatricLife #bariatrics #bariatricWho really needs 100 g of protein or more after WLS? 🤔•

I would argue not many but some do. The @ASMBS suggest 60-100 G protein after WLS. Usually the higher end is reserved for men that are taller in stature or women that are very active and tall. •

If someone needs around 100 g of protein, it’s challenging (if not impossible) to do it with real food. Typically at least one protein drink is needed. •

What you see in the picture is 👇🏼•
•
Breakfast: Greek yogurt with 1/2 c frozen blueberries•
•
Snack #1: Protein Drink•
•
Lunch: 1/2 Tuna salad (about 1 can), 1/3 cup carrots and 1/2 an apple.•
•
Snack #2: Protein Drink•
•
Dinner: Bone-in chicken thigh with 1/3 cup broccoli and 1/4 cup sweet potato.•
•
I am curious.... what protein goal did you receive from your surgery center? 🤔•
