There are shakes out there with fewer than 5g carbs per serving.For example, I just recently discovered Isopure zero carb cookies n' cream protein, and I LOVE it! I mix the powder with 8oz of either unsweetened almond milk, unsweetened coconut milk, or Hood Calorie Countdown milk, so it's only 2-3g total carbs per serving.

Welcome! 
LC is not for everyone but it is for me. Had I not left the low carb life I may not have become obese. I won't let that happen again.
There are many zero carb shakes out there. I use egg protein. Healthy and fit nutritionals has no carbs and no fat. I add a little canola oil and almond milk (unsweetened). It makes good protein ice cream too.
Its an adjustment. However, it can be very satisfying once you find the foods you really enjoy.

V'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
I did quite well when i was on atkins before, but as with all my dieting efforts pre surgery i gave into a treat, carbs, and that was the end of it... this time is different i will not let it be the end.

I had gained 6 lbs over the Halloween thru New Years period and that is why I joined. I've lost 3 of those. well I lost more, and then bounced back. I seem to be stuck here wanting to loose 3 more, but happier than I was before I dropped 3.
