Hell, when I'm dieting I don't have the calories to waste on something that is in no way filling and has nothing more to offer than "protein" and "sugar" and if I really want something baad, a good choc milk is more filling anyway (and oh sooo tasteee).

I usually saw worse results from having a shake because it was just an extra couple hundred calories with no satiety and I still had to eat something substantial shortly after workout anyway. It just erased my deficit.
