From the Tesco website Whole Milk has 4.7% carbs, Skimmed Milk has 5.0% carbs so for a 40ml addition to tea or coffee that makes a difference of 0.12g of carbs.

And how many cups a day? If you're on a very LC diet, then it can make a difference to the more nutritious food choices you can eat, so trimming back where you can is helpful. 'Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves"

So if you have 8 cups of tea a day that will be a whole gram of carbs you can feast on.
