Yup, I think most are only about 2 carbs per serving. Even the "low carb diet" powdered shakes in a can are 2g. Dunno about the fiber content though.
Keep in mind: If you are talking whey, which is basicly only of real value after a workout, people normaly dont count carbs immediatly after a workout.

Why is whey only of real value after a workout?

Word on the street (street meaning every forum on the web) is that whey is so quicky absorbed that it is best after a workout to ride the insulin spike.
Other proteins like casin are best the rest of the day so they can be absorbed slowly. Expecialy at night when you are in a state of fasting, a slow absorbtion protein is best. You can mix it with whole milk or add some flax oil it to it because the fat causes it to be absorbed even slower.
Just what I gather.
