Fair Life Milk - thoughts?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried the new fair Life Milk products? They are amazing and pack 19g of Protein in a single serving. The chocolate is my favorite and it's so much better than the taste of the Protein shakes. Only issue is that is has 17g of sugar and 20 carbs which is kind of high.

Do you guys think these are too good to be true? The sugar and carbs are definitely much higher than a typical EAS or Atkins shake. I plan on asking my NUT next week, but in the meantime...

I've seen it i the stores but haven't bought any. I use a HEB brand of lactose free milk called "MooTopia" The Fat Free version has 6 gms of carbs all sugar) and 12 gms of Protein per cup.I've used it all through the mandated weight loss, pre-op and post-op. It tastes just like regular milk but cost significantly less than Life Milk. I'm glad to hear that the Life Milk is good, so that on the days HEB is out of my MooTopia or when we travel, I'll have a good substitute.

Before surgery I fell in love with the chocolate fair life milk. Then my nut said no, to much sugar. Darn. Anyway, there is a fat free white fair life with 13 gr Protein per cup. I am using it to make pudding, hot chocolate, etc.

That is funny, my nut was pushing it on me like crazy. I am not a fan of the taste so I use my pre made premier Protein for my chocolate and strawberry fix.

I did not like the taste of all that sugar.

I drink it in moderation due to he high carbs. Tastes great and a lot more Protein than regular milk!

I actually made a milkshake with the chocolate and some Artic zero ice cream last night and it was amazing. It is kind of high in sugars/carbs, but as a once in awhile splurge it is great with all the protein! Or if I need something sweet, I have a quick swallow and it is excellent. I've had a container in my fridge for a minute now and it lasts longer than regular milk too.

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

      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! 😞
