Too much Protein?
I was wondering if it is possible to get too much protein in. I had about 121 grams yesterday. What happens if you have too much or too little? I am 4 weeks Post-Op and have lost 26 pounds. Am I on track? Seems other people have lost so much more at 4 weeks. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi Darlene,
I have asked the dietician that comes to some of our support group meetings if you can have too much protein and she said yes. She said that you should target what is recommended, because overdoing the protein can slow weight loss. I will not comment on the weight loss because everyone is so different and you cannot judge yourself against anyone else.
I am really curious how do you get so much protein in at 4 weeks. I hope all is well and I hope my point of view helps.
