I try to watch carbs but I just like fat free milk better. When I drink it to wash down chocolate cake, who cares?
Until very recently, I drank about a quart of fat-free milk a day, for the past 40-plus years (I switched to buttermilk a couple of weeks ago). My very wise mom advised me to stop drinking the non-fat stuff because, she reasoned, the body needs the fat to help process what's in the milk. So I switched to 2 percent AND LOST FOUR POUNDS in about two weeks.
Just goes to show -- listen to your mom!
You have a point.
I started out “watching” carbs and since adopted and ultra low carb way of eating. I am glad that at least one of us can enjoy the cake though.
