Am I eating too much at 4 weeks post op?

Good morning everyone!  I had my one month follow up and nutrition class this week and I was told I needed to get more protein in.  I completely understand that and I want to do well so I've been pushing to do this however by doing this my calorie intake has increased quite a bit.  I've gone from 400 calories a day to 650-700. I know, I know....stop thinking about calories and just focus on protein.  Im sure this is what most of you will say and also what my Nut said but I cant help being scared.  Here is an example of my menu from today:

breakfast: 

1/4 cup of 2% milk with decaf coffee 

1 egg + 1/2 banana + 1 tsp of PB

snack:

Simply Protein bar ( I was told to try these by my Nut to get more protein since I cant do more then 1 shake a day)

Lunch:

3 oz. grilled top sirloin stake

snack:

1 premier protein shake

dinner:

3 oz chilli

TOTALS: PROTEIN:79g, FAT 24g, CARBS 38g

please note I am also trying to stay as low carb as possible but the Simply protein bar had made that number go up a bit.

What kind of protest shake are you drinking? Premier premier Protein and Body Fortress have 30grams of protein per serving and only 1 gram of sugar. I had my surgery 12/14/16 and am still progressing on soft foods. I am surprised that you are eating beef at this stage. 

I am drinking Premier Protein shake, just edited my post. 

Thankfully I have been able to progress to solid food quite nicely as long as I chew, chew, chew and eat slow I have no issues.

I was not allowed beef for 6 months as was told it can be hard on a new tummy.

Here are a few other options:

tuna in a can (tons of protein)

adkins lift drinks

isopure drinks

any other non sweet tasting protein drinks

quest chips

It's funny how different we all are, because I had no restrictions on any meats at all... of course, I didn't start eating any of them until 6 weeks, and then it was almost impossible to get more than 1oz down.

However... tuna got stuck so many times that I quit eating it, yet, a ribeye has always graced my pouch with respect and dignity! 

Tuna is a great protein, as is shrimp and of course, beef... but at 4 weeks, I was NO WHERE near protein goals... and I just nodded my head to the NUT, and went about my business... I think I drank more protein shakes to make up the difference, but no way I could do it with food.

I was the same.  I had no meat restirictions either and I could eat ribeye from the beginning.  I had to supplement with protein shakes and still do on small pouch days and I am 10 months out.  I still haven't tried tuna.  I cant get past the smell yet.  

Your pouch has good taste Pammieanne!

I don't get the rationale to limit you to one protein drink a day @4weeks out. IMO protein bars are fancy candy bars. Not worth the carb vs. the satisfaction they provide. Also I'd drop the banana for now-- again just carbs/sugar. (And curious-- what does one do with the remaining 1/2 of banana??)

at that point by I know I was doing 2 protein shakes a day, and 1 meal and 1 snack. 

Thank you for the reply!.

I am not being limited to just 1 protein drink a day, I just cant tolerate more then  1 protein drink a day which is why she suggested the bar.

The banana I just added today actually because she (Nut) said to add 1 fruit portion with our breakfast.

Protein bars are addicting to me... and they are so much like candy bars... I only eat them sporadically, either in an emergency, or when I'm craving sweetness. Maybe 1-2 times a month... 

The Vets here had my radar up on these before I even had surgery.

I was drinking 2-3 shakes at only 4 weeks out.
