I personally don't drink plain milk and I don't use it in my beverages. I did think about it though when I started F5. The conclusion that I came to is that if a person has to have milk in their coffee or tea, it might be better to use a small amount of heavy cream instead of milk. Milk doesn't have as many calories as heavy cream but heavy cream has no carbs and won't affect insulin levels in small amounts such as what is used in coffee or tea.
If you use a tbsp of cream in your coffee you're ingesting 25 calories of fat. That's a half hour of potential bodyfat that could be burned. So really it's up to you.
Stll, Dr Herring's recommendation from the F5 book is not to have more than 5 calories during your fasting period.
