protein shake first thing in the morning?

[supplementme]

i workout about an hour and a half after i wake up in the morning

would it be alright to have a protein shake as my first meal?

according to the sticky i should either have a pretty big meal before my workout or a protein shake

i dont think i could down a full sized meal right when i wake up

Better than nothing. Maybe blend some oats into it?
