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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
