I've switched from 2% to fat free. No difference to me now

I've tried soy and almond milk, too sweet and watery in my opinion

I like oat milk the best, especially for cereals and the like. It is also thicker than a lot of the other fake "milks" and doesn't taste like sh*t the way soy milk does.

If you want GOOD milk though find a place that sells raw milk. It is good for you and tastes wonderful. It also contains enzymes and nutrients that are destroyed in the homogenization/pasteurization process (homogenization makes milk pretty, pasteurization allows milk to be produced in a less hygienic manner because it kills bacteria. These are the processes that make milk bad for you by altering its composition and denaturing its proteins). Don't believe the hype you hear about raw milk on the news. People drank it for how many generations before we started processing it? The health issues come from producing raw milk in an unhygienic manner the way milk destined for pasteurization is produced. If you find a good farm/dairy/co-op source for raw milk there is not really anything to worry about and the milk is fantastic. Raw, non-homogenized milk is also a self-digesting product so it is generally OK for lactose intolerant people to drink as well.

Good luck finding something you like.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
