Milk doesn't irritate my stomach, but it does produce some noxious gas. Macadamia nut milk is also an alternative if you want something other than almond milk. Also there is something called A2 milk that comes from certain breeds of cows and has a different Protein content than most milk, but it won't help if you are lactose intolerant.

I hope this helps.

Milk definitely messes with me but that's because I'm lactose intolerant. However, I did read than many people are lactose intolerant after surgery even if that was not the case before surgery. My stomach sometimes feels irritated when I have regular milk which is closely followed by bloating and gas. You could try Fairlife milk which is lactose free and is higher in Protein than regular milk. It works really well for me. Or you could consider carrying some chewable Lactaid tablets with you when you're out if you want to get a coffee.

Hopefully it's just the lactose because that's the easiest to work around. Good luck!

Try the A2 milk. It is supposed to be easier on your stomach. I've not tried any of the commercial ones but we get some local and haven't had issues with it.

Try pea milk! Sounds super weird, but I discovered it at Target and it's creamy and delicious. Cashew milk is very good, too.

Has anybody noticed Carnation come out with something they call "Cooking Milks" it's in the evaporation milk aisle. I know I did see almond,there. So May be trying to corner more of the moola out there.

      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! 😞
