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.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
