Protein Bars?



Recommended Posts

Can anyone recommend a good Protein Bar that is high in Protein and low in sugar and calories?

Quest bars are high in Protein, low in sugars and carbs. But they are also pretty high in Fiber. I didn't have the wrapper with me to ask my NUT about this. I'm not sure how much fiber you can eat after you have the sleeve. Here's the nutrition label from a chocolate brownie quest bar. (you can also top it with Peanut Butter for extra protein)

1 Bar

Calories 170

Calories from fat 50

Total fat 6 gm

Total Carbohydrates 24 gm

Dietary fiber 19 gm

Sugars 1 gm

Protein 20 gm

Other Ingredients:

Protein Blend (Whey Protein Isolate, Milk Protein Isolate), Isomalto-Oligosaccharides (100% Natural Prebiotic Fiber), Almonds, Cocoa, Water, Natural Flavors, Sea Salt, Lo Han Guo, Sucralose.

Hope this helps. It's not been easy for me to find a Protein Bar that is low in sugars and carbs.

Sounds great! Do you know where you can buy them individually?

You have to buy them online.

Oh Yeah bars are really good. They are 7 grams of carbs You can get them online at vitacost.com, which has all sorts of Protein powders, Vitamins, supplements, and everything else imaginable. You can also get them in health food stores like GNC but it's cheaper to get them online.

Power Crunch bars are really good and have 10 grams of carbs.

Just watch the carbs. It's better to have more protein than carbs. Most Protein Bars are around 200 calories.

Actually, Quest Bars are now beginning to show up in GNC and Vitamin Shoppe stores - not always the best flavors (apple pie is my favorite!), but hopefully that will change.

      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! 😞
