What milk is best for you, especially when trying to lose weight? Soy? Nonfat? 2%?

    Whichever one you prefer and fits in your calorie and nutrition goals best.

    Depends on your needs and desires. I buy non-fat milk because I'm on a low-fat diet. I get the Fair Life milk because every little bit of calcium and protein are helpful for me, but it's way expensive (as milk goes) and not at all necessary for most people.

    MILK IS FOR BABY COWS!

    Drink whichever one you like the taste of and fit it in your calorie goals.

    Drink whatever you like that fits your goals. Personally I've been drinking silk almond/coconut blend unsweetened lately. Mostly because my kid likes it best. Only 35 calories a cup and it tastes pretty yummy.

    I drink 3.9% fat cow's milk. Goat's milk when I feel like spending more just for the variation.

    whichever milk you enjoy is ultimately going to be the best for you, especially when you are reducing calories. Enjoyment increases satisfaction.

    I drink the 1% milk just because I like to eat my fat in peanut butter, hehe. Otherwise I also like the almond/coconut vanilla flavored.
