Will switching milk make me gain weight?

I've been drinking skim milk for as long as I can remember, but have considered switching to semi skimmed. I'm trying to maintain my weight and was wondering if this switch (considering I drink 1-2 glasses a day and have it in tea, coffee, etc...) would cause a significant weight gain?

    If you drink the same amount of something, but it is higher in calorie, and you go over your deficit-you will not lose weight at the same rate. Adjust your deficit to allow for anything you want.

    It adds a few calories so it depends how strict you are. Maybe it will satiate you more and you'll eat less. If you add calories to your diet at maintenance, you will gain weight.

    In and of itself no...calories in, calories out.
