My doctor and nutritionist says 64 grams of protein a day and 64 ozs. water a day.  I do not know how much you should have before surgery.  I see a lot of people on here saying 75 - 100 grams of protein a day.

Before surgery it didn't matter until 4 days before. Then I had to be over 64 grams a day. Then after surgery my doctor only cared about me staying hydrated. After my 2 week I asked and they said at least 60 grams a day and 64 ounces of fluid.

Hope that helps!
