Thanks for the replies.

I am not overly concerned about the protein shake lacking flavor, or even tasting unpleasant. I'm more concerned with what's in it, and blahblah's recommendation of Interactive Nutrition has intrigued me. Do you have any more details about this supplement? What does it cost generally, and can it be found cheaper online?

A general question/concern of mine is the prospect of added calories causing me to gain weight/fat. What are the odds of this happening?

I am quite certain that I am burning quite a few calories every day, and I am not concerned about becoming overweight due to my very high metabolism, but I am curious about what happens to the added calories I would be taking in if they weren't burned off on a given day.

It seems that "healthy", no frills, protein supplements can be found, and given that, I'd consider purchasing and giving it a shot. Thus, I'd appreciate specific recommendations as well as places online where they can be purchased at a discount, if they exist.

After browsing the online offerings very briefly, saying I'm overwhelmed by the brands and selections available would be an understatement. The Interactive website alone has 14 supplements available, so I'd certainly appreciate some specific names and brands that you've all found to be satisfactory.
