Fairlife Milk for Protein?



Recommended Posts

I was told by my doctor today that I could use soy, skim and almond milk for Protein if the the Protein Powder was a lot. Has anyone tried Fairlife? It has 13g protein per cup.

I use Fairlife Skim all the time. in fact, I make my shakes in the morning with it - usually 1/2c pineapple, a handful of fresh spinach, a cup of Fairlife Skim, a scoop of Protein powder (vanilla) and a handful of ice. Throw it in the Ninja and I've got a Breakfast that's under 200 calories and about 35g protein. Holds me til lunch and I'm almost 2 years out.

I switched to drinking Fairlife skim milk after my dietitian recommended it. I love milk and think it tastes just like regular milk, plus it's almost double the amount of Protein and fewer carbs. I hope you love it, gully90!

A lot of testimonials here, maybe Fairlife is as good as the reviews.

Its the only milk that I use now. It tastes good, has extra Protein and no Lactose in case your intolerant. The skim/nonfat version has about the creaminess of 2 percent milk so it mixes pretty well with coffee.

I used it even before surgery. I love that it's lactose free. Less sugar and more Protein.

I drink 1 cup fairlife skim mixed with 1 cup fairlife chocolate every morning for breakfast during my commute to work. Have for about 6 months. :)

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
