I bought coconut milk, silk brand, 90 calories a serving. Its low in sugar. I do not like soy. Not much Protein. Was it wrong, should i have gotten my regular skim milk? Im trying to eliminate hormones etc that are found in cows milk

I don't like soy either. I am told the almond is better.

I did a microbiology project on milk in college and I'm forever ruined. I drink soy, almond, and rice. I cook with soy. We drank coconut Water in Costa Rica quite a bit, but coconut is a natural laxative, so you might be better off with almond milk or rice milk if you can't stand soy or cows milk.

I make Protein Drinks out of all of them. I never use milk. I use soymilk, or almond or coconut milk.

Good idea for organic cows. I tried almond and rice, not a fan, i might add Protein suntrax to my milk.

Interesting about coconut being a natural laxative. Something to pass along to the many Constipation posts!

You can try add Protein (unflavored) to the coconut milk to turn it into a Protein Drink.< /p>

I drink coconut milk everyday... use it in my Protein shake...I make sure to buy UNsweetened type... SO delicious is the brand I buy most often

Almond milk was too thick for my liking...

So I bought almond and skim milk. Skim isn't bad but I don't really like the almond, how does the coconut milk taste compared to almond?

I love the Mootopia milk. It's lactose free, has less sugar than regular milk and has 12 grams of Protein per cup. I use the non fat Mootopia daily. I also buy their chocolate milk for when I'm craving something sweet.

I do use unsweetened almond milk in my smoothies sometimes.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
