I'm 5'3, and currently weigh 218lbs (down from 226lbs a few weeks ago, so all is going well).
Per the TDEE calculator, I've been aiming for 1500 calories comprising 151g protein, 67g fat, and 75g carbs (40/40/20). Per my earlier post, I'm falling a little under on calories, and averaging more like 30/45/25 on the splits.
On the protein front, I'm struggling to consume more than 100g in the usual course of my meals, and when I've tried to force it, by cooking up some plain chicken, I've ended up upsetting my tummy and being unwell for a few days. This has happened twice now, when pushing protein over 120g.
I had my gallbladder removed earlier this year, and digestion has been a bit of a struggle since, and I'm wondering whether the extra protein may be an irritant. Anyone else here have similar issues?
I know my body weight determines that I should be getting more protein, but will I struggle on this journey if I keep it a little lower?
