I have very very little dairy because I do get a reaction (bloat, congestion, stomach issues) if I eat more than a bit of it. I used to make my own Greek yogurt, which I adored, but that was too much. Now I limit myself to a small cappuccino daily which contains about 2T whipped half and half or cream, and an occasional bit of cheese, but nothing beyond that. Over the years, after I gave up gluten I thought it was probably harder to give up dairy than it was for gluten, but now that I've edged off of it to this extent, I don't really miss it. It's kind of funny, because for the first 50 years of my life I thought I couldn't eat dairy...as a kind I never liked milk, ice cream, cheese, the usual stuff because I had terrible digestive issues from it. Still true, I guess, but I found out late that gluten was also a problem.
However, I have to say that the food limited Atkins low carb/high fat diet I follow now is perfect for me....never an issue and I feel great.
