Getting enough protein is the single most important nutritional goal after bariatric surgery. This calculator gives you a personalised daily target based on your surgery type, current weight, and activity level, then breaks it down meal by meal.
Protein targets are based on published bariatric nutritional guidelines (ASMBS 2020 and IFSO 2023). Individual needs vary based on your specific surgery, any complications, current health status, and advice from your bariatric dietitian. Always confirm your personal protein target with your clinical team. These recommendations are a starting point, not a prescription.
