    I am looking for a shake that is low cal/low sugar that I can take either after a workout or as a filling snack during the day.  My boyfriend got me into Muscle Milk light which is tasty but it's just a little too high in sugar.  Any suggestions?

    My personal favourite is IsoFlex.  I'm not sure if it's available in the US but I the nutritional info for one scoop is as follow for the chocolate: Calories 111, Fat 0.1g, Sugars 0.5 g, Protein 27 g.

    Probably one of the best tasting protein powders I've tried and they come in so many flavours.

    My favorite is Optimum Nutrition from GNC in Double Rich Chocolate:

    I mix it up with nonfat milk and it is a tasty treat! Low cal/low sugar/high protein.

    I drink Aria, which is available at most grocery stores. 80 calories, 2.5 g sugar. I am diabetic, so it is perfect for me. Its also majority soy protein.

    I used to drink Lean Dessert Protein by BSN. It only has 2 sugars but 8 carbs. I liked the cinnamon roll and like that you can make it a pudding instead if you want.

    I use some brand called "Pure Protein" that I got from Target in a huge container for about 16 bucks. It only has 130 calories, 2.5g fat, 2g carbs, 2g sugar, and 25g protein per scoop. Which is AWESOME! I have seen a lot of whey protein shakes be extremely high in carbs and sugar---and doesnt that kinda defeat the purpose? And mine is the Vanilla Creme and I think it actually tastes pretty good as long as you blend it with some ice and it's nice and cold!
