 I tried Muscle Milk Light RTD this AM. I know I haven't been getting my protein in. This seems to fit the bill. 20g protein and only 160 calories for a 14oz bottle. This tastes pretty good too. It is pricy but if I can tolerate it it's worth it. 
So please give me your reviews.  I did a search and had trouble finding much info. 
To bring you up to date:
 RNY. July 5 2011. Surgery weight 291.5. Current weight 208.5. Really pleased with my surgery. I had some trouble at first which gave me a slow start. Lately I am only losing a pound a week. Slow going but at least it's still going.

I like the chocolate one. I don't drink them all the time because they are so pricey, but they're good in a pinch.

I love love love the stuff.  Its the only shake that I can take down without a struggle.  Yes....it is a bit pricey.  I get mine from Sam's.

I like the Muscle Milk Light Caffe Latte (I think that's what it's called).  It's a new flavor and it has some caffeine in it, so you should up your water intake when you have caffeine, but the taste is awesome!

 Tried it and threw up in the sink. I think I have trouble with the name. Grosses me out.

It was one of my favorites (in my two weeks pre-op, when I was still not yet disgusted by ALL the protein drinks).

At one point I saw them at Sam's Club, $24.83 for 18 containers -- that's only $1.38 each, which I think is a pretty good price.

Muscle Milk Light is one of the shakes I use.  I add a 1/3 of a scoop of the Jay Robb unflavored protein to it and some ice and then I've upped my protein to 30 grams without having to chug much more fluid.  I buy the pre-mixed ones at Costco. I think its like 25 bucks or something for 18 of them. Last weekend my 24 hour fitness was selling the powder for $19.99.  My advice is to when you find something that you like and works for you then buy in bulk its cheaper.  and its good to have on hand for earthquakes and stuff.

Shortly after surgery I tried Muscle Milk light and didn't like it (although I didn't like many I tried  early out). I just tried it again the other day and it wasn't bad. However, I prefer the GNC Total lean ready to drink in Swiss Chocolate. I think it tastes better and has 25 g of protein and 170 cal for a 14 oz bottle. I also think they are a little cheaper. I can usually get a 4 pack at GNC for around $7-8. I don't think $2 a bottle is too bad considering what I used to spend for a fast food meal before surgery.

 MM Light is OK - although I notice a brief aftertaste - but nothing I can't live with. Yeah, the name grosses me out as well.

Costco carries a brand of protein shake in both Choc and Vanilla that taste great and contain 30 g of protein in each container. Love 'em.
