Timing Protein

Do I have to space my Protein out throughout the day? Or can I finish my protein intake in the morning and focus on other liquids?

I'm still on liquid stage. 5days post up. I purchased whey protein, and 2 scoops of powder equals 60gram of protein. So I could potentially make a 10oz glass of whey in the morning and be done with my protein?

Drinking shakes is still difficult at this stage so if I could just finish my Protein shake in the morning and then focus on Water and Vitamin water that would be easier for me. Still the goal at the end of the day is to get 65oz of fluids. I'm currently at 55oz working up.

We all wish it were that easy, but your body can only absorb 20g per hour, and there's no way you can drink all that quickly anyway. I'm 4 weeks out and it still takes me 2 hours to drink 1 drink whichever protein i use. So id say better to space out a few smaller ones. Good luck!
