    Phd Diet whey is amaaazing!
    It tastes great, is low carb and low calorie and really high protein.
    I highly recommend it, especially for women.

    Optimum Nutrition. My absolute favorite.

    check online for good flavors. I like chocolate mint (tastes like girl scout cookies) mocha cappuccino and blueberry.

    bodybuilding.com is where i order from

    I use the one that's endorsed by The Biggest Loser. It might taste a tad plain when mixed with water, but each scoop has only 50 calories, 6g of protein, and 6g of fiber. It will fill you up, and it tastes even better when mixed with nonfat milk.

    I use that too. It's great. So yummy mixed with fage greek yoghurt and mashed banana. Probably my favourite thing to eat!

    I purchase Beverly International. It is a little more expensive than other brands, but it is definitely worth it!! Both the chocolate and vanilla are amazing!!!! They also have cookies and cream but I have not tried that. You can also get some deals on it once and awhile with the company.

    I've uesd the EAS Soy protein which is 180 calories and 20 grams of protein per scoop, which is a pretty good calories to protein ratio, but it has a lot of sugar. Lately I've been into these protein shots (they come in these test tube looking containters and you can get them at Meijer) and they're 180 calories, 0 sugar, and 42 grams of protein. Don't taste the best but it's just a few sips and it's easy because there's no mixing or refrigeration needed!

    Honestly, all the ones from walmart work really well. When I was solely building muscle I used Six Star Pro Nutrition Proffessional Strength WheyProtein PlusElite series. It gave me excellent results. And I think its $18 for a whole tub. Does wonders for me after my trapeze/aerial silk training...little to no soreness.

    Definitely Optimum Nutrition. Their Extreme Milk Chocolate tastes like chocolate milk to me (even just with water). I use two scoops of that in the morning and at night and get 96 grams of protein a day from it. Makes it much, much easier to hit that 200 marker each day.

    I use the Syntax Nectar, Lemonade flavor, it has 90 cals, no carbs and 23 protein. I tend to take protein like medicine though. As long as I can swallow it, it works..lol. Tried an orange flavor of the same brand. Hated it!. Gave it away!

    I can tell you that muscle milk is the MOST horrible thing I have ever tasted!!! DO NOT buy Muscle Milk. It doesn't dissolve and is all chunky. It makes me want to throw up (unfortunatelly I bought a big tub of it)
    I love EAS Whey protein in chocolate, 130 calories 23 grams of protein and 1 gram of sugar. It is wonderful and dissolves nicely even when I dont have my blender.

    Happy shopping!!

    100% Whey from Mucsle Milk. buy from Costco, its $36 for 6lbs or 80 servings. 130 calories, 1g sugar 27g protien per scoop!

    i like to mix it with flax seed to gain extra omega-3 and fiber

    I make several cups at a time in a large blender and to add some extra flavor *kitten* in a small amount of a Crystal Lite packet then place left overs in fridg for a after work out drink.
