    From what I can recall... you dont wanna have whey mixed for any length of time.

    I would recommend:
    a) if you can buy a carton of milk at work do that, and mix it there
    b) mix it w/water instead at work (if you can bear it)

    Guys, first at all, thanks a LOT for your tips. I'll mix it at work just two hours before drink it. Just as I do when I go to the Gym.
    Thanks for your allways kindness help.

    here are the stats .....

    whey protien mixed in only water , optimum consuming time 6 hours from prepared time .

    why protien mixed in milk + yogurt + water and other fruits or goodies ......

    good to drink optimum time 8 hours ( after that it starts to smell like poo*)

    this was done at our lab , where i work , we did this experiment since i make up my shake and wanted to see how long it lasted ....... before i can drink it .... loosing nutrients , in only water very fast ................ plus other stuff less fast ............... best thing is i keep the whey in a zip lock and make it at work when i wanna drink it ......... if not dont keep it more than 4 hrs before consuming !

    hope this analogy helps
