    Designer Whey protein has 100 calories. I drink it with water and splenda.

    Not sure what product you are using, but my best friend just started on the Body by Vi (Visalus) shakes and she's been raving about them. They are low cal too...two scoops are 90 calories. If you want to buy some, her husband sells it and I'll give you his website.

    The best tip I can give you is to buy a GOOD brand of whey protein isolate --- not whey concentrate.
    Most of the pre-made shakes and many of the other names you hear all the time are concentrate so read the labels.

    Second -- figure out what flaovors you likes. I learned early on that I do not like very many fruity flavors in protein powder - they taste like medicine to me, but some people love them. Every brand will taste different -- get samples if you can. Also play around with what you mix them with -- that can change dramatically the flavor. I hate most of them in JUST water -- so I usually mix fruity ones with diet V8 splash tropical and water and then I like it.

    My favorite is coffee.....so most of my protein shakes are made with cold decaf coffee, soy milk and protein. It makes me feel like I'm sipping frappuccino all day even though I'm not :)

    I prefer whey protein isolate with no artificial sweeteners so I usually order from trueprotein.com or buy isolate advantage from costco -- both all natural. Chocolate and coffee are divine together :)

    These aren't all low-cal, but as a meal replacement, these are awesome, thick and very filling!! My fave is the strawberry cheesecake shake.
