My trainer and nutritionist told for WLS patients, us the following formual as minimial guideline - (1.5grams * LBM(lean Body mass) in lbs) / 2.2 (to get into Kilograms)
Leann Body mass = total weight minus total fat weight. In my case its 175 lbs
(1.5 g *175)/2.2 = 120 grams
I take in an average of 120 to 140 grams per day, this has not stopped my weight loss at all.
Hope this helps, any questions PM me
