    I'd recommend buying one of those bullet blenders, and making a yogurt and fruit smoothie in the morning; better investment of your money. Mine takes less than 5 minutes to make every morning, and it keeps me full. I would avoid slim fast; they're calorie deficit shakes full of icky stuff, and not a good replacement for actual food.

    I can't stomach those slim fast things. I've noticed a few things...i am not a breakfast eater, but when i don't eat breakfast before i go to work, I'm so ravenous by lunch that i make terrible choices (even if i packed my lunch, which i always do..i work at a fast food place and try my best not to eat the food). I usually eat something quick and portable and easy, like an egg that i hard boiled the night before and a banana, or a banana with a slice of toast. The longer I'm awake, the more i can stomach food, so u aspire i could just get up earlier....but i get up early enough as is. Planning the night before, for both breakfast and lunch, helps me not eat absolute crap by not getting too hungry. It took my a couple weeks to learn this, though. I pack my lunch the night before, so i can just pick it up and run out the door. If you feel like you do better with drinking breakfast, try a smoothie, just blend a banana, some plain yogurt, strawberries? Don't know if anything I've said will help you, but that's my two cents :D
