I only drink skim milk, but once in a while we'll buy some a small carton 2% if a recipe calls for it. The skim's always fine with me, but it has to be ICE COLD.

I like to put a measuring cup of milk in the freezer for 10 or 15 minutes and then pour it over cereal. :@`

Give up milk? Not a chance for me. Like Stew, I always drink skimmed milk but a tea or coffee without any milk is a step too far I think & I am not keen on the soya milk - which is useless in coffee anyway (just sort of sinks to the bottom of the cup as I remember).
Good luck though!
As far as the getting fit thingy goes I probably haven't left first base ... I am still trying to find the willpower to cut out the ciggies! :(

That's a Brit thing. I've known a few Brits who'll drink the odd black coffee now and then (usually when they have a hangover) but tea without milk is considered completely barbaric. ??? ??? I keep thinking that there must be someone over there who will drink tea black, but I have yet to find anyone!! ;D I can do it, but it isn't the same, is it? :( I've been tempted to get just a small container to keep on hand for my tea, but less than two weeks into this experiment it seems like too soon to start cheating.
I am with you on the soy milk. And I'm not giving up "real" milk on a permanent basis. I just want to see if it will help me shed these last few pounds and maybe then I can reintroduce it into my diet in more moderate quantities.

Razor.....Doesn't Carnation or some other brand make a powdered
milk supliment with zero carbs and zero caleries you can try? I know
back when I was doing a low carb diet they had something I tried and
you mix it up in a pitcher and let it sit for a few hours in the fridge and
from what I remember it tasted just like milk. Maybe you could try that
as a substitute?

I don't know. They make nonfat dry milk, but I think that is basically the same as skim milk. Still has calories and carbs. But if you can think of the name of what you used, I'd be interested in hearing about it.
