Tried skimmed milk instead of whole milk with my porridge for breakfast today to see what difference it makes. It came to 189 kcals for 40g porridge, 300 mls of skimmed milk and 1 teaspoonful of sugar. This compares with a 351 kcal total when I have had the same amount of porridge with whole milk, so this means a saving of 351-189= 162 kcals. It's a choice really - either have a better taste and more calories, or a taste which is slightly less good but saves on calories. Milk I use is generally Arla lactose-free,as I have problems with lactose. From time to time I also have a glass of coconut milk. Aim today will be to cut down on snacks and try and keep more to some healthy meals. Maybe that will help with controlling the calories. I'll also try to put in some exercise, so I'll see how it goes.
