soya milk

[pd7707]

hi everyone.
i am starting the diet again today and just wonder if i could use soya milk with my coffee. the tesco brand one says 0.5 carbs, 0.3 sugar in 250 ml.
if i count this in my daily allowance it seems to be ok. i won`t drink more than 200 ml anyway. i just believe it is better than cream in my morning coffee.
usually it is only the first day when it`s so difficult to give up all the things i am used to have on daily basis, like milky coffee.
last time with atkins i lost weight during the induction but put it back immediately when i included more carbs.
i will be better this time i hope.
just 4 kilos to lose.
thanks

You'll be fine with it, careful though, soya milk can sometimes curdle in coffee for some reason!

You can buy soya milk especially for coffee etc that doesn't curdle now, I use it in cooking. My local Tesco had it, which isn't a huge one so look out for it

Hope that helps.

I don't like soya milk and I am a lactose... haha. I LOVE almond milk in coffee though.

Also I have recently got instant soymilk packs, that I bring with me incase I need to have coffee while out. Oh and yes both soya and almond sometimes curdles.. which i hate...

it`s true. that the regular soya milk curdles when mixed with hote water. i tried to mix it with cold coffee and then put in the microwave but the result was the same.

i would love to know from where i could buy instant soya milk. it will be big help with my coffees fix))

i use lidl soya milk, its thoe only one i have found that doesn't curdle. it keeps well too, i buy 5 cartons at a time and store it in a cold cupboard (very, under the sink)until its opened.

It curdles in boiling or near boiling water. Try making your coffees a little cooler.

Love the sound of non-curdling soya milk...I wonder how they did it? In my vegan days I would knock back the chocolate soya drinks (with their half-ton of sugar per 100ml....healthy!).
