Soy milk for milk diet?

[poo bear]

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know if I can replace the milk on the pre-op milk diet with soy milk?

Even though I've been tested as fine with lactose if I have enough milk it can make my mouth itch - which is why I usually have soy milk instead.

Thanks,

Marie.

From my pre-op sheet yes any form of milk you can tolerate.

Marie I can't tolerate cow's milk or soy milk, I had rice milk (fortified with calcium etc) and I lost 10lbs in ten days so you should be ok.

I have a lactose intolerance but use Lactofree milk - basically cows milk without the lactose. It's great!
