Favorite protein bars



Recommended Posts

What is everyone's favorite Protein bar/food brand and what are your favorite flavors? My weight loss has been very slow to date, so I'm going back to shakes and supplements for 2 meals a day to see if that gets things going better. I've only lost 36 pounds in going on 5 months. Thanks for your help.

Zone bars are my favorite kind. I like the dark chocolate flavors. These bars are not low-carb, though. Myoplex Lite are not bad, either, my favorite flavor is Peanut Butter. You have to read the labels on these things, a lot of them don't actually have that much Protein for the amount of calories you are getting - you'd be better off with beef or turkey Jerky in some cases. And a lot of the low carb ones have a ton of fat. I've seen some bars with 35 g of fat!

I eat the Premier Nutrition Protein Bars that are sold at costco and Sam's Club. There are 3 flavors in each box of 12. They have 30g of Protein, 7g of fat and 280 calories. These are the only ones I can stand the taste of, and I've tried many many kinds. If you go to a store like the Vitamine Shoppe, they'll let you return them if you don't like the flavor and they have tons to choose from.

I like the Atkin's bars and Pure Protein. Mostly because they have lower net carbs, and they still taste decent. The Pure Protein ones come in two different sizes, and the small ones are perfect sized, but I can't eat a whole large one in one sitting.

I eat the Premeire from costco too and the Oh yeah bars. I love the Peanut Butter chocolate. I'll have to get one and post what it says for fat grams. I know they are 200 calories and 15 grams of Protein.< /p>

Those are my fave too! Actually I think the Premier Protein have 30g protein, 280 calories. Very filling and tasty. Honestly I keep thinking I must be cheating when I eat them because they are so good. Double chocolate are yummy too!

Sorry about that! Actually I like protein bars WAY better than Protein Drinks. I am dreading my first few weeks post vsg because I am an eater, not a drinker! I know it is a short phase though and will pass quickly. I Hope my results are comparable to yours!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
