    I choose semi. Although I also love full fat with extra whey.

    All I know is I got chubby when taking loads of full fat, strength gains were great, but most the weight was fat.
    its not the full fat milk that made you fat, it was the extra calories!

    Blackstone is not confused about anything, here.

    Did the full fat milk, make you drink lots of it? Nope.
    Did you drink so much milk, that you took on an excess of calories? Yep.

    You ate too many calories. You chose to keep eating over your maintenance. Consuming too many calories was your choice. Gaining fat was your fault, not the milk's. All the milk did was look and taste great - it didn't force its way down your neck, in large quantities.

    May be worth thinking about full fat being better for health, too, particularly with fat soluble vitamins? Vit D and K especially (Vit K seems to be the 'new D' at the moment with its potential to shuttle calcium to where we want it and not where it may be problematic (i.e. arteries... etc). I've been getting raw milk for around 12 months, but it is pricey... next best unhomoginised organic. I'm cutting/recomping and I have dropped my milk intake from 2 pints to 1 pint a day, but as mentioned, this is really a way of reducing my fat intake/kcals, in view of my progress stalling for a few weeks.
