    No- it did not mix well at all! It wasn't powder- I'm talking about the drink that comes in a carton- looks like a juice box. It sat at the bottom of the coffee like mush.

    Thanks for all suggestions. So far I am sticking with the skim, hoping I'll get used to it.

    Anyway.... To the point. Has anyone found a great alternative to skim milk in coffee? Skim milk is not working for me. I'll suffer through if i must but thought maybe there is an alternative out there that I have yet to hear of?!?!? I tried a small amount of the IP vanilla drink but it did not mix well.

    Suggestions?
    forget the skim milk!!! i'm with the half n halfers. no carbs. big deal about the fat and it hasn't affected my weight loss. i'm 4 oz from my goal. I measure 1T per cup and I usually have 2 cups in the morning. Gives me 40 cals. 30 from fat (still in ketosis)and zero carbs, which is what we focus on in the plan. thumbs up from my coach as well. all that skim stuff has the most carbs in it. It's tricky stuff with the lowfat stuff.
