I do. I count my post-workout shake as one of my meals, but it doesn't really matter if you don't choose to count it as a "meal". Worry more about your total calories.
I use whey powder for breakfast as well so it's kinda hard for me not to use it as a "meal" for that one either.advertising/self-promotion not permitted

This ? implies that a certain amount of meals a day are necessary. The cup of coffee I am drinking with a splash of whole milk in it could technically count as a meal if I felt like calling it one.
The real ? would be, "does a protein shake count towards my daily macros?" Which the answer would of course be yes.Ya, I blog.
