Milk, Or Lack There Of.

So My Surgeon isnt a huge fan of milk. He says it has to much sugar. So I was in the grocery store tonight and I saw 2 things. 1. Silk unsweetened almond milk, and silk unsweetened silk... I guess.... no flavor. Great on carbs great on sugar. Has anyone ever had either of these? What do they taste like? I've only ever had milk so i'm wondering if and how similar they might be. Also don't buy hersheys sugar free chocolate syrup. I saw it and almost died I wanted it so bad. I got home added it to some milk and ts disgusting. It is bitter, sour and just plain nasty, Avoid at all costs.

I like the unsweetened coconut and rice milks in my shakes. Pre-surgery I didn't care for either in coffee. I still used fat free half-n-half.

I was lactose intolerant for three or four months after surgery. I drank it only when needed, not as a supplement. Can't remember gagging on it so it wasn't horrid. Don't drink it anymore, so it wasn't great.

You are eating to be healthy so do what is best for you...with your surgeons blessing. Good luck in finding what works best for you.

I bought the silk, vanilla and it tastes pretty good mixed in with protein powder, when I mix it there is a total of 19 grams of protein in 250mls! It's filling and takes me about 2 hours to drink the glass! I didn't like the almond milk as much as the silk!

I drink soy lattes as a treat and have always liked soy milk. I just started them with the protein. Not as thick as the cow milk which is a major plus for me.
