I appreciate completely that skimmed milk  looks "fine " on surface, but for me its not - when I drink a coffee with cream, I know its a satisfying treat to drink occasionally when I drink tea with skimmed milk , I just want more and more of it. On a " low fat diet "   I would allocate calories to a pint of skimmed milk per day and drink tea if ever I felt hungry. I did it in the certain  knowledge I could drink freely because there were  hardly any calories in it.  This I ended up pretty addicted to  tea with skimmed milk.  It took months  on my LCHF diet to stop the incessant craving for it.Practically ALL of my current low carbs today was already coming from the skimmed milk before I even started to eat. the other 800 calories of mainly carbs I allowed myself  on my LFHC diet.  Of course no individual item causes the damage, cumulatively its a disaster .  Hence for me the last thing I need is to reawaken my craving for skimmed milk when I go in a coffee shop.</blockquote>
