My post-op instructions were 60+g of protein. I've also seen recommendations of 0.8g/kg - 1.3g/kg of lean body mass (~0.36g/lb - 0.59g/lb), based on your exercise level (lower=sedentary).
Interestingly, the Recommended Dietary Allowance (per the Institute of Medicine) is 46g for adult women and 56g for adult men.
