Ok, so I got my six month labs back and they told me my protein numbers were low. I check my protein on mfp several times a day to make sure I am hitting between the recommended 60-80 grams per day. On some days I am well over that number. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I'm not sure what else to do if I am hitting the 60-80 or more on some days.

    60-80 is minimum, more is better. I lived on Isopure Zero. 40oz of protein in a 20oz bottle. Pushed up protein and fluids. Flavors taste like a "Jolly Rancher". For the first few months I would sip through 2 a day. Since you are getting 60-80 most days I would try some flavors to find what you like and drink 1 per day.

    Thet say you can only absorb about 25g at a time. If you're not spacing your protein supplements out thru the day, you might try that.
