How much can I drink at a time?

I'm 7 days post op today and am able to get my Protein drinks- 8oz down in about 30-45 minutes. I questioned the nut that said I shouldn't be

drinking more than 4oz every 30 minutes and I should space my protein out during the day. My doc told me to fix my 60g of protein, divide it by

3 and those were my meals. As long as I got those in he didn't care what else I had, he didn't want to hear at my post op visit that I can't get my

protein in but can have other things. Can Protein Drinks really put that much pressure on our staple lines? I'm a bit worried now as I don't want

to damage anything. I'd appreciate your words of wisdom. Thanks!
