    I also drink pure protein. I like the triple chocolate one. Plus I'm a forever broke college student and this one fits my budget :D

    Most whey powders should fit your needs, just a matter of finding one that tastes good.

    On a side note, IME, it's much better to cut a few extra cals from some other meal so you can mix with milk or ice cream than it is to try to go ultra low cal on the shake.

    Stay far away from them. That is my suggestion. Personally, I can't stand the taste of them - and I've tried both the chocolate and vanilla. This is odd, as I like the Pure Protein powder just fine, and I actually really like the taste of their protein bars. But the pre-made shakes? Ugh...

    Why? What's so confusing about it?

    Look at the labels, find one that you like, give it a try.

    because there are so many out there and I tried one and got my butt chewed out saying to high in this and that etc. I think I will take a trip to vitamin world and see what they have.

    By who? You know what you want... who cares what anyone else says. If it fits your needs, then isn't that good enough?

    Syntrax Nectar - Vanilla Bean and Chocolate Truffle are my favorites. I mix them with almond but water would work too.

    You really have to try a bunch of different ones to figure out what you're going to like best. It's very individual...

    Trutein -- Cinnabun flavor. Tastes amazing and not much filler. Also gives you 3 kinds of proteins that digest throughout the course of the day AND tells you exactly how much of each protein you're getting. Basically, its a premium protein that tastes great.

    Spiru-Tein is the same way, but not 0 sugar (I'm ok with this though). 14g protein, 110ish cals. I love peach, blueberry and chocolate cookie dough. I mix 1 scoop in to a bottle of water and it's my breakfast. Sometimes it's worth it to compromise on a little sugar or fat to make it tolerable!

    Great vanilla flavor and it has a lot less crap (no artificial flavors, sweeteners, colors, etc.) than some of the others out there.
