Are dried beans for us post op?

I was wondering if dried beans are good for us as post ops? I know they have a lot of protein in them but am kinda worried about the carbs in them. I don't do shakes and need to get all my protein in food. My surgeon does not want me to do the shakes or bars for some reason. I normally eat about 1/2 cup of dried beans 2 times per day at almost 9 months post. Is this okey or is 1/2 cup to much? I have not lost in 2 months and am really getting concerned if this may be the problem or maybe my body is just trying to catch up with what it has lost. The types I eat are pintos, limas and black eyes. Beans seems to be my favorite dish since surgery. who would have thought? any info on post op eating is greatly appreciated. My surgeon didn't give me any type of food plan and it has kind of been learn as I go.
