My doc/nut says 60-80 a day.  BUT  if found that I personally lost more consistently if I kept it around 80-100. Of course, that was when I was like 8-9 months post op and could get a good deal of my protein through food. Knowing I was going to have two surgeries in one week, I've upped that to 100-120.  It helps promote healing. Love, Susan with the puffy eyes and shiny, swollen face that's gonna be beautiful in another week.

One other thing, I talked to a personal trainer a few weeks ago about working out with him, and he said I should go for 140 grams a day!  Kind of wonder about that....too much protein can be tough on the kidneys.
