My surgeon told me to discontinue protein supplements after 2 months....

I was under the impression that this was something that I would have to do for the rest of my life. He said that new studies have shown that the supplimental protein is only good for the first two months of healing and that most of us get what we need through food... now please don't blast ME I am only the messenger..and I am not advocating to anyone to stop doing what you are doing... I just thought I would pass on what I was told. Since I am only 6 weeks post-op I am still going drink my protein .. but I am not sure what I am going to do after I have been post-op two months.. has anyone else been told this? P.S. my surgeon is board certified .. so I do trust his judgement.
