Which milk for weight loss?

[Vikingquest]

For weight loss, hands down unsweetened almond milk.

Coconut or Almond but I prefer coconut milk - the fat contains approx. 60% M.C.F.A.s which are more easily burned for energy.

Try half of either the above and half your regular milk to get used to the flavor switch.

While skim milk does save calories, scientists at the U. of TX found that drinking whole milk after lifting weights boosted muscle protein synthesis 2.8 times more than skim which lacks the heart-healthy omega 3 fatty acids (which makes skim milk a highly processed, additive-laden, vitamin-laced beverage that – oh, yeah – has protein). Take out the fat from milk & all you really have left is sugar.

That being said, Flavor Splurge because I've been a good girl - Horizon's 2% or put me on the Chocolate team, mmm.

I would love to have almond milk always. My body loves it, but that shit is so damn expensive here

Yes unsweetened almond milk or flax milk would be best

 

[HGH]

unsweetened almold milk is literally not worth drinking. just soak some cardboard in water overnight and call it "milk"

i drink organic whole milk exclusively.

diet food is bullshit.

I can't drink regular milk, so I've been getting rice milk for a couple years.

Its pretty good, and taste really close to real milk.

I made the switch to Almond milk. I get the unsweetened. My stomach appreciated it too. Way less stink bombs. great source of protein too.

Skim/fat free milk. Actually grown to enjoy it. Went from 2%, to 1%, to skim. Do it in stages.

My wife is lactose intolerant and use to drink soy milk, now drinks almond milk! My ex grew up on skim milk , i dont know how i cant stand it. unsweetened. Very little sugar and fats in almond milk But u have to make sure you but the right kind as some has hardly any protien in it. I know this from messing up and buying the wrong stuff for my wife from time to time.

this is the best approach. There are much better sources of protein and unless you're drinking organic/non-mass produced it's full of crap you don't want. I still drink milk but only because I enjoy it.

I drink whole milk, i dont care how much fat is in it. I LOVE MILK and i like to be able to taste it! only reason i keep 2% in the house is for when my nephews and neices come over!

never thought of organic whole milk....i don't really do organic. but may be going back to the drawing board for a lot of things if im going to be competing sometime soon. Need to change a lot of things. Diet beingthe main things! supps as well!

We get the organic, lactose free milk, generally whole or 2%.

My husband is a hard gainer, I think it's gross and eat yogurt instead though as sassy said there are much better sources if you're looking for weightloss , and my daughter uses very little milk, and I prefer her to have natural fat vs added sugar

I'm not a fanatic about organic, but with meat, or animal "products" just looking at how the nutritional values can change based on the animals diet has me buying "organic" these days just so I can get a cow that doesn't get fed corn, etc...
