Any GOOD, high in protein, Milk alternatives?



Recommended Posts

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 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.

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.

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".

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

      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.
