Looking for a good ratios of calories and Protein. I tried rice milk and nearly fell off the stool when I saw the number of calories it had, scratched it off my grocery list. The Blue Diamond almond milk I got has 1 gram of protein! I thought almonds were supposed to be high in protein, what the ???? Not looking to drink it straight out of the glass just add it to coffee , Protein shakes, etc.

I use Skim Milk plus, it had 12g of protein, 110 cal and not sure about fat, for 8oz. It's really good I use it everyday for my shakes.

I suspect I am lactose intolerant , this is why I am looking for non daily options but thanks for your input!

I used to use rice milk and loved it.but post opp I agree with you, is too many carbs and calories. I got a small container of original, unsweetened soy milk for now.

It's more fruity, not really milk tasting, but you can't beat the amount of protein in only 3.8 oz...

Skim plus does have a lactose free version.

Lactaid skim. I'm very lactose intolerant and this is the only milk I can use. Skim has 90 calories and 8 gms protein in 8 ozs.

Soy milk?

Lactaid There is also a Lactaid cottage cheese!

If you live near a Kroger try their Kroger Carbmaster milk. 8 oz. has 11g of protein and 60 calories. Comes in regular and chocolate. It's lactose free and tastes great. I am lactose intolerant too and just started drinking this after my surgery. I haven't had any intestinal problems with it. Now 16 oz. of half regular/half chocolate is my before bed "snack".

Thank you! I started with the Lactaid 2 days ago an dso far so good! Had not seen the post on the cottage cheese yet, I will look for it too.

I drink the almond milk and add the powdered whey protein. They do sell a version of the blue diamond with extra protein.
