Are there any whey protein shakes out there w/out soy

Help!! I have been told to stay away from soy,as it leads to bloating and weight gain. I have been working out hard,and keeping MFP updated daily. I have lost only 4lbs. in a month. I hear people talking abt.whey protein shakes being helpful,but I am scared to try if it has soy lecithin in it. I imagine soy lecithin is the same as soy. I do not need to gain wt.,i want to lose abt. 40 lbs at least.Can anyone help me and let me know if soy lecithin is a problem,or if there are soy free whey protein shakes out there? I will appreciate anyfeedback.Someone told me to get JMiwhey protein because of low calories,high fiber/protein,but it has soy lecithin in it.

    Yes, soy lecithin is derived from soy plants, so if you want to stay away from soy products, it is a good one to avoid; although, I've never heard about the link between bloating and soy consumption.

    The protein powder I use, Leanfit Whey Protein, does not contain soy lecithin. So you could try that one.
