Love this! #MyBariatricLife #bariatrics #bariatricWho really needs 100 g of protein or more after WLS? š¤ā¢

What you see in the picture is šš¼ā¢
ā¢
Breakfast: Greek yogurt with 1/2 c frozen blueberriesā¢
ā¢
Snack #1: Protein Drinkā¢
ā¢
Lunch: 1/2 Tuna salad (about 1 can), 1/3 cup carrots and 1/2 an apple.ā¢
ā¢
Snack #2: Protein Drinkā¢
ā¢
Dinner: Bone-in chicken thigh with 1/3 cup broccoli and 1/4 cup sweet potato.ā¢

I am curious.... what protein goal did you receive from your surgery center? š¤ā¢
