I'm 2 1/2 weeks out from my surgery. I have been struggling over the last few days to get in my protein. Over the last few days I've only gotten about 45 grams. I'm not sure how else I can get at least 60 grams of protein at this point without having shakes. I've been eating an egg and a little bit of refried beans and cheese for breakfast, tuna fish or a shake for lunch and then a soup with unflavored protein powder. This isn't going to cut it.
I was really hoping to stop the shakes, but I don't see how it's possible at this point given how little I can eat. I don't see the nutritionist again until July 12. I'm hoping she can give me some tips on how to up my protein intake.
