  • I use Optimum Nutrition Whey protein powder (french vanilla ice cream is my favorite) and really like it. It mixes well and I can handle the taste (I blend it with plain almond milk, peanut butter, and ice). It's 120 calories, 3 grams of carbs, and 24 grams of protein per scoop. I bought it based on all the great reviews it's received.

    This is what I use too.

    I use the Weider 90% soy protein - for a fake latte I mix the protein powder with skim milk powder and sugar free flavored syrup (Carmel is my current fave) mix it with a cup of strong coffee in a magic bullet and I am ready to go...

    I love Optimum Nutrition Casein Chocolate Cake Batter. I make a 1:1 mixture with water, stick it in the freezer for 15 min and have a nice pudding-like consistency. It's decadent and yummy tasting and doesn't mess with my lactose intolerance.

    I make regular shakes too, tastes richer with almond milk... but I love the pudding thing!

    I use GNC Lean Shake 25. I like that it is 200 cals, 25g protein and low (3g I think) sugar. It does have 17 grams carbs but since I use it as a meal (usually breakfast) I don't worry about the carbs too much.

    Been using it for about a year, don't really think it helped my weightloss especially but it helps me feel like I'm getting the foods I need.

    ETA: I only mix with water too.
