Protein Train Check in!
Morning Folks!!
I'm feeling pretty good today since I've been getting major sleep lately with the exception of the fact that I've been waking up at 3:28 a.m. every day this week.
Nevertheless, this is a protein check in.........................................
With MSW's calculation for protein in-take I'm way below the mark so for the next few days I'm going to ramp it up and see how it works. I should have over 100 grams of protein daily. Right now I'm having green tea w/2 scoops (52g) of protein.
Did you do the calculation? How much protein should you get in daily?

Per my surgeon's RNY bible (its the size of a bible):
Your weight divided by 2.2 equals your weight in kilograms
This is the number of grams of protein you need daily. Of course it declines as you shrink. I use this as my minimum and shoot for 100g daily. I have a desperate fear of malnutrition
I'm hitting the protein hard today, shooting for 110g to keep me away from the naughty foods. You'll understand my shame when You read my accountability post for the day. I'm scared of the stats.
