    For weight loss? Try herbalife or Musclepharm combat powder.

    I use AMP and as long as you use one scoop at a time it is low calorie and works great

    I love the ISOpure that I usually get at my gym! I think it's by Elite? It's 107 cals per scoops, tons of protein, very low carb and no sugar, but it tastes fantastic!

    I prefer to stick to low cal protein powders and then add plain oats for carbs and peanut butter for fats. This allows me to control macro's to a T.

    My favorite thus far is Gaspari Myofusion, Cookies and Cream or Milk Chocolate. Optimum nutrition is good but not after you've had Myofusion.

    Optimum Nutrition - 130 cal per 25g protein.
    Myofusion - 147 cal per 25g protein

    AMP...I've tried it, but it's too expensive of a product.

    I am currently using PVL Iso-Sport whey. It tastes good, I usually put it in my smoothy, but I always blend it with fruit, spring mix, a bit of yogurt. The powder is 140cal per scoop, but 30g protien. I use it for post workout snacks (or usually breakfast after a workout)

    I use optimum nutrition pro complex - 30 grams of protein = 135 calories.

    As far as 'low cal' goes the difference is very slight. You might find one that is 80 calories per serving but that's because its only 20 grams of protein. A gram of protein is roughly 4 calories and that's that. So the only real fluctuation in calories comes from how many calories are in the non-protein part (for example how much sugar/carbs).

    I've been using this: Garden of Life RAW Protein http://www.amazon.com/Garden-Life-RAW-Protein-622g/dp/B0031JK96C

    80 cals, 18g of protein, 3carbs and only 1g of sugar. I drink it plain and it has hardly any taste at all....I think it would blend into a shake nicely.
