I wanted to replace milk because of the sugars...I'm good with dairy, and appreciate the calcium. I noticed something very interesting...whole milk and 1% have the same amount of sugars per serving! So what would I gain by reducing from whole to 1% milk? Reducing calories and fat (this of course is good), but I want to reduce sugars right now for optimum weight loss.
I bought unsweetened almond milk to try on the morning cereal and it's thinner than water! Using 1/2 cup almond milk plus 1/2T of heavy whipping cream brings it all together, WITHOUT the sugar! The heavy cream has zero protein, but I get plenty of protein so for now, this is a delicious substitute!
