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. :)

      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!
