Nutritional Shakes to up calories...

Hey MFPers!!
I started new medicine and now I have no appetite! Boo Therefore I really need to find a decent (read: not disgusting) nutritional shake (preferrably low/moderate in sugar and with moderate protein) that I can take with me during the day and have 1-2 during the day, as needed, to supplement my meals. 1300-1500 calories is FAR too low for me - and I recognize this. I don't want to lose anymore weight. Side note: I'm a grad student and I work on campus, too so I'm on campus 5-6 days a week from 7:45 AM until 10-10:30 PM. I bring food from home because I'm gluten intolerant and my campus has extremely limited GF options.
So, if you've made it this far! Does anyone have any suggestions of not too nasty nutritional shakes, not too expensive (I am a grad student for the love of goodness!), and probably no more than 350-400 calories/each so I can have a couple during the day to mitigate sideeffects of my medicine and to up those cals (less/more calories is okay...just a ballpark guesstimate!)
Thanks in advance lovebugs.
