    I don't think a protein shake is going to be very satiating and I really wouldn't advise a protein shake for meal replacement. They're more of a supplement than a replacement. I don't advise meal replacement on any kind of regular basis, but if you're going to do it there are shakes and what not designed for that purpose.

    Why not just have a sandwich and an apple or something?

    Agreed, it's important to remember that many protein shakes/supplements are just that - protein. They often don't contain other macro and micro nutrients that you would get from eating a more traditional meal. If you want a meal replacement, you should look for one that is specifically formulated to be used that way so that you're not missing anything nutritionally. :smile:
