Low Carb Chocolate Milk

lazygirllosesweight

My niece was recently diagnosed with childhood onset Type 1 diabetes. She's just a wee skinny little thing and LOVES chocolate milk. She's used to drinking practically a gallon a day. But now she can't have it very often due to limits on her carbohydrate intake. She's heartbroken and is begging for it constantly.

So, I'm on a quest to find a good low carb alternative. Something that tastes good and a little kid would enjoy.

Ideas?

Type 1 since 5yo, been doing well for 23 years strong There are GREAT alternatives. Swiss Miss makes a great Sugar Free powdered mix, 10g carbs & 60 cals per envelope. Add skim milk, soy milk or any alternative & shake!

Hope that helps!

I love Unsweetened Chocolate Almond Breeze. I just add a packet of Splenda to it, and I'm good to go.

Unsweetened Almond Breeze. I heat it up and add stevia to it and it tastes better than full fat chocolate milk. And I'm picky:laugh:

Yes...its 'diet' food, but by far the best tasting low-carb, high-protein stuff Ive had (besides pure protein revolution bars). The link is to smoothies, but with less powder they have a liquid consistency.
