Protein bars??



Recommended Posts

Is there any type of Protein Bars we are allowed to have?

Anybody have any good ideas in a type I should try? I need something for either at work it after working out.

I'm just worried about being dizzy from working out on so much fewer calories

I love Atkins Protein bars!! They are the best tasting that I've had and have low net carbs (if you watch that). They are perfect to take with you if you are on the go!

I agree... Atkins are the lowest carbs, but there are a lot out there. Usually located near the Protein Powder. Watch for the calories though and be sure to log them.

I don't use them except for if I have to replace a meal...I always have one in my purse in case I can't eat a real meal and feel my blood sugar dropping.

That said, I like Atkins and hate Quest bars. I cannot understand the good reviews about Quest bars...they are slimy, taste awful and unnatural. On the other hand, one would never binge on them so that's a good thing!

Great point about calories. Calories vary a lot with Protein Bars :)

There's nothing wrong with Quest bars, I like them ~ everyone has different tastes and you need to try things for yourself to figure out what you like...Best Wishes :)

I replace Breakfast with Protein bars and I love the yogurt granola bars from Quaker.

I also like the nature valley chocolate cherry...They both have 150- 190 calories.

Watch ingredient lists very carefully on Protein bars... A lot of them are just processed crap that amount to nothing more than a glorified candy bar.

      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! 😞
