I'd say it depends on the timing. If you've eaten before lifting (or had the pre/during drinks) and are planning to eat 30-45 minutes post-lifting, then you might do just fine with the meal.

Sometimes I lift 2-3 hours after the meal, then don't back to food for an hour or more post workout. In that case, I definately NEED the drink. I'm starving and woozy without something in there.
