I eat Atkins bars. I think they have 8 grams of fat. I don't think it's significant, most other things I eat are very very low in fat. Remember, your body needs some fat to absorb fat soluable Vitamins. Best wishes!

I really enjoy the ThinkThin Protein bars. They have 20-grams of Protein. I am diabetic and the bars do not cause any weird rise in my blood sugar (unlike some others on the market). I actually think that I read somewhere that they were originally developed for diabetics.

You really have to watch some of the 'protein' bars on the market. Some label themselves as protein bars but they really don't have much protein in them. I figure if I am going to use 200 calories on a bar I had better get a good amount of protein and a good flavor. My band is tight in the morning so I eat one for Breakfast every day. They go down really easily for me.

Here is the website for all the nutritional information:

think Thin: Protein Bars, Weight Loss Bars, Nutrition Bars

I purchase my bars at Trader Joe's for about $1.60 per bar.

Good luck!

I like the pure Protein bars. 2-3 grams of sugar per bar, about 20 grams of Protein, and 6 grams of fat. They taste pretty good.

I noticed that the low sugar power bars have a lot of carbs though.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
