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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
