Hello.. I'm 16 years old, and slightly overweight. I'm hoping to start changing myself by eating healthier and doing more cardio, but I have a question. I have thinning bones (long story), and though it's good to drink water, I still want to drink a lot of milk. Is milk bad for you if you're trying to lose weight? Thank for your time!
Well, that all depends on what TYPE of milk you drink. If you drink whole or even 2%, the calories will add up. If you can, switch to skim. It's lower calorie, has no fat, and you get the same amount of calcium and nutrients.
Try taking a calcium supplement as well but skim milk is best, it is all that I drink along with water any after about a week you get use to the taste.
there is a 1/2% although i have never tried it and ive only found it in harris teater. but i think going down gradually works too. i dont drink milk much at all but 1% isnt all that bad.
