Hi Brooke,
Welcome to the group! Due to an extremely hectic life right now, I don't
always keep up with the messages or post often, but I did see your message.
I'm not vegan, but I just don't like regular milk (I also think that it's
ridiculous that sugar is added to it). I drink unsweetened almond milk as
an alternative and prefer the taste to regular milk. There are many options
out there, but the one that I prefer is Blue Diamond Almond Breeze:

I believe that there are some unsweetened soy milks out there, but soy milk
tends to upset my stomach. I have some friends who prefer rice milk, but
I'm not sure about the sugar content.
Congratulations on you decision to become vegetarian! I have been a
vegetarian for about 13 years and feel much better than I did before.
Cutting down on sugar consumption may also help with the lethargic feeling.
I've noticed that when I've consumed a lot more sugar than usual, I start
feeling run down and sluggish.
Good luck on your journey to healthy eating!
Joy
