There's a new milk in town, and it's packin' more Protein, less sugar, and NO lactose. It's called Fairlife, and so far I've enjoyed it. I don't, nor did I ever, drink a lot of milk, but I like the creamy flavor of this and the additional Protein and less sugar makes it do-able from a Bariatrics standpoint (in my personal opinion).

Oddly, I'd normally only drink whole milk, but this has a creamier texture to it and the 2% suits me fine.

The additional protein is not added-in. Apparently the revolutionary part is in their filtration process. Interesting.

Wondering if anyone else has seen it, tried it, etc? What do you think?

Some more info, if you're curious: http://fairlife.com/our-products/reduced-fat/

It is the only milk I buy. My whole family likes the taste. I don't drink a lot of milk, but when I do it's Fairlife.

I have switched to it and so has hubby, who has not had WLS nor does he need it. We love the extra Protein and it doesn't taste bad!

I saw it at the store just the other day but they were sold out of skim and only had chocolate (lots of sugar...darn it), whole and 2%. I've really been wanting to try it.

I love it - those extra 5 grams are a huge help when you're counting every gram of protein! Doesn't taste any different than regular milk to me.

I love it! The extra Protein helps and it tastes great. Even my teenage daughter prefers it to regular milk.

Glad to hear so many are trying it. I've been having one before bed (the individual size) to top off my Protein. 19 grams definitely helps.

I haven't tried chocolate for fear of the extra sugar, but my kids like it.

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
