I bought coconut milk, silk brand, 90 calories a serving. Its low in sugar. I do not like soy. Not much Protein. Was it wrong, should i have gotten my regular skim milk? Im trying to eliminate hormones etc that are found in cows milk

I don't like soy either. I am told the almond is better.

I did a microbiology project on milk in college and I'm forever ruined. I drink soy, almond, and rice. I cook with soy. We drank coconut Water in Costa Rica quite a bit, but coconut is a natural laxative, so you might be better off with almond milk or rice milk if you can't stand soy or cows milk.

I make Protein Drinks out of all of them. I never use milk. I use soymilk, or almond or coconut milk.

Good idea for organic cows. I tried almond and rice, not a fan, i might add Protein suntrax to my milk.

Interesting about coconut being a natural laxative. Something to pass along to the many Constipation posts!

You can try add Protein (unflavored) to the coconut milk to turn it into a Protein Drink.< /p>

I drink coconut milk everyday... use it in my Protein shake...I make sure to buy UNsweetened type... SO delicious is the brand I buy most often

Almond milk was too thick for my liking...

So I bought almond and skim milk. Skim isn't bad but I don't really like the almond, how does the coconut milk taste compared to almond?

I love the Mootopia milk. It's lactose free, has less sugar than regular milk and has 12 grams of Protein per cup. I use the non fat Mootopia daily. I also buy their chocolate milk for when I'm craving something sweet.

I do use unsweetened almond milk in my smoothies sometimes.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
