Protein Bar suggestions

[Jonna 4]

My doctor has suggested I eat a Protein bar if I start to feel real hungry during my 10day pre diet, which I start on May 18th. Can anyone suggest which are the best? Also, I'm losing my excitement I guess because its been such a long waiting game. Has anyone else gone through that?

Thanks everyone!

I went through the presurgery jitters. I was banded on April 19th. I get my first fill next Thursday. The first week was a little uncomfortable. Heck, I was pulling weeds in the flower beds 4 days after my surgery. I am just now starting to have an appetitie but I am able to control it. The worst part for me not being able to sleep on my port side as I am a side sleeper. But, I can do it now! Good luck.

There are a number of them different people like. My preference is for the Premier brand. They sell them at costco, but I'm sure you can get them elsewhere, too. http://www.premiernutrition.com/ I like them because of their fresh taste, and how satisfying they are. They come in three different types, are quite filling, and most important - they don't taste like cardboard. I really like their ready-to-drink Protein shakes, too.

The bars average about 270 calories each, but contain 30g of Protein. I use them as Meal Replacements when I'm in the car, stuck at my desk at work, or when I think I need a snack. (I eat about a third of one at a time, and follow bandster eating/chewing rules.) It works well for me, and I find I don't have to worry about what I'm going to eat, if other foods aren't readily available at mealtime.

Hope this helps.

Special "K" protien bars are the only ones I've ever tried. They're not bad, only 180 calories and 10g of protien.

I LOVE the Zone Perfect Cinnamon Roll bar.

It could be better with protein-- it only has 13g. But man, it tastes awesome. I eat one for Breakfast almost every day.

Hey! I also have Dr. Brebia! I was wondering which shake and Protein Bar had the highest Protein and lowest sugar.

[CheckYes 46]

I like ThinkThin bars. They are sugar and gluten free but yummy! They come in a regular size and a 100 calorie size. Toffee Nut Crunch and Mudslide are my favorite chocolatey ones but I also love the Tangerine Dream which tastes like a 50/50 Popsicle.

Hey there,

Great to hear someone else used Dr. Brebia, he seems like a great doctor. I'm getting really excited to have my surgery on the 27th. We'll have to keep up with each other! Take care!

Dr. Brebbia has a great reputation. Elsa is a life saver. BC/BS requires 6 visits to the nutritionist. Passed the Pulmonary Dr. He wants to do a sleep test any way just to see if he can add something else to list of problems. So I have 4 more classes. Hope to get banded before Nov. We're not able to take time off Nov or Dec. Retail ya know!
