    Whey protein shake for breakfast?

    I often skip breakfast because of time. Would a Whey Protein shake be a good substitute?

    You NEED breakfast dude, it's the MOST IMPORTANT meal of the day. Your body is in a FAST (hence the word Break-fast; breaking of that fast lol) from no food while you've been sleeping.

    I usually have a whey protein shake and some mueslia and toast. If a shake is all you can get, then I suppose it would be good (definitely better than nothing).

    wake up earlier then...its called dedication, breakfast is the ONE meal u should definetly NOT miss

    EDIT: yes whey is good at breakfast with milk - helps with sustained release of the proteins too

    Call yourself a bodybuilder and skip breakfast?!

    You need carbs for breakfast, oats are great. Whey protein is also a decent idea.

    A whey protein shake is definitely not sufficient for breakfast IMO. Like others states, carbohydrates should be very important.

    they are idiots you dont need breakfast. you know what you should do? buy every supplement out there and cook it over a hot plate. low calories and low fat. then you can eat it with some protein powder. and last but not least some steroids to wash it down with. =D


    but seriously they are right u do need breakfast. especially whey protein. whey to me will only fill in gaps of protein and vitamin and cant take up a meal. vs muscle milk which is good. add water and that is like a full meal. throw a fruit in there just to be good.

    Before joining BB i didnt really have a decent breakfast, woke up as late as i possibly could to get to school ontime and therefore didnt have time for breakfast.
    When i read up, I decided it was time to wake up an hour earlier and definently have some.
    Seen some good gains since

    What i do atleast when i cant eat breakfast (when im in a hurry or have a job to do) is

    1 or 2 scoops of whey protein (mainly 2scoops for breakfast but only if it fits your protein/carbs ect. daily intake) ,2tbls of oats,1 banana and 250-300ml of milk 0-1%fat(you can add peanut butter in aswell).and then u mix it all in one shake(i recommend a mixer its easier and faster) High in protein and it keeps you fed for atleast 2-3hours (basicly youre next meal)

    You dont have time for breakfast? There is a simply sulution. Wake up earlier or prepare some meals. Dont skip the most important meal of the day. Nothing wrong with drinking a shake for breakfast in addition to your food though.
