Whey is just protein, if you get enough from other souces it's not going to do anything.

The only reason to take whey would be that it is quickly absorbed, this is something you want PWO and in the morning. It isn't really going to matter all that much in the morning though, just eat some eggs instead if you don't want the shake.
