I personally feel strongly that a solid food breakfast is the best thing for you in the morning, not a shake. All the commercially available shakes and "healthy" drinks are total crap. And even if you make a healthy shake for yourself at home, you may as well make yourself a real breakfast. It will fuel you properly for your day and help control your appetite all day and help keep you from eating late at night.
The pressure of the solid food on your stomach walls is a major factor in satiation and controlling hunger and the lack of it with drinking shakes is a major flaw in a shake-heavy diet in my opinion. I usually eat half a chicken breast or tuna and a piece of sprouted grain toast and a banana or orange for my breakfast with some hot tea. And I will drink a whey protein shake after my workouts when I need it the most. Sometimes I will have a casein shake at night also. But I still prefer to eat three or four solid food meals throughout each day for sure and breakfast is the most important one.
