good post, but....
Hey Suzanne, that was a great post but something that does concern me is the direct opposite stated from what we have been told pertaining to protein supplements. Kelly told our pre-op group that we needed 50 grams of protein a day. This article says "we do not advise the use of protein supplements or drinks". Kelly said it would be almost impossible to get that amount of protein without supplements. We need to be careful of conflicting info, especially amoung us recent post-ops. Thanks.
