It really depends on what you're aiming for, doesn't it? If you want my take—and you probably don't—you should definitely be hitting that shake right after your workout, preferably mixed with water. Personally, I stick to water and a bit of glucose post-training to get things moving. As for breakfast, if you just toss one scoop into some oatmeal in the morning, you’ve basically got yourself an ideal meal. Simple enough.
Don't go making the mistake of sipping on protein three or four times a day just because that's what you read—you’ll end up seeing absolutely zero results from it. Honestly, unless you're actually hitting the gym consistently, those extra shakes are pretty much useless. If you can't manage to sit down for a proper, real meal because your schedule is a mess, then sure, maybe toss a shake in there to bridge the gap—but let's not pretend it's a magic fix for a bad diet.
