Got milk?

I'm almost 3 weeks out and I was wondering if anyone has tried milk.

I'm struggling to get my Protein in and I noticed my milk has 8g of protein and maybe should add some Protein powder to it.

It's a little high in sugar (12g) but I was wondering if anyone has had any? The kind I have is 1%.

FAIRLIFE! FAIRLIFE! FAIRLIFE MILK! I repeat, FAIRLIFE, FAIRLIFE MILK!

Here check it out!

I drink four ounces of Fairlife 2% twice a day. Some days plain, other days with protein powder and I love it! It is a staple in my fridge and I hope it never goes away.

I just switched to Fairlife myself. My supermarket just started carrying it. It's great!!

Fairlife is so good… I was a big skim milk drinker and worried about not being able to tolerate milk after the surgery. I've had the Fairlife chocolate before, but I bought some white and about died. So creamy and yummy! Better for you, too!

It's a little rough to cook with though sometimes.

Milk is full of sugar.

I've bought my last gallon of it weeks before I started the pre-op diet.

The Protein shakes all mix just fine with Water as far as I am concerned.

@@LoseItKacy I was sleeved 9/30 as well. I mix all my protein powder with milk. It gives me more protein and makes them taste much better for me. My surgeon approves milk and I still stay within my calorie range.

Have you been able to reach your NUT?

I hope you are feeling better soon.

I am glad you have a disclaimer for your attitude as your "signature."

I haven't tried Fairlife milk but here are the nutrition comparisons if anyone's interested

I love milk. But am severely lactose intolerant since surgery 2/2015. My doc told me to keep trying it once in awhile to see if I can readjust but so far, no luck. Yogurt has been a good substitute. I need to try the lactose free milk, but just can't imagine it being the same. Milk has been ok with my doc since day one due to the nutritional value, even with the sugar content.

I'm on the Fair Life bandwagon too. ????
