You might want to ease into the steak. A lot of us found steak hard to eat. For me personally, I was unsuccessful at eating stake until month 5. Tried 3-4 times before that. You may have better luck, but thought I would warn you ahead of time.

Tried out the two think thin flavors today and got nauseous after eating. I think they are too sweet or something is messing with my gag reflex. Felt kind of sick for an hour. First time. Now I am sure I Like the nu go bars because they do not leave any after feeling like think thin bars did. Maybe it is because there is some ingredient in the think thin bar that I am not agreeing with. I am Protein loading to help my legs repair a bit after a weekend hike. Still able to run on my treadmill at incline 5% (oh, felt so good and the sweat was a river), but I look like a zombie walking around the house due to my two stiffies ( no ideas ladies!! :) ) it will probably clear up by Wednesday. In the meanwhile I am adding 3 extra protein based meals in between my 6 meals in order to get in the high protein ( 200+) over next day or two. Extra 600 calories or so daily to get me around 1800-2000. Then I will drop back to 1200. Probable good for my BMR to try this little experiment out.

Tried out the Detour Lean Muscle Bar today. It is not bad in terms of taste, nutritional stats and satiety. The flavor I got is cookie dough caramel. This may be on the sweet side for some, but it does not seem to bother me.

Calories: 190

Fat: 6g

Carbs: 17 g (1 Fiber, w sugar and 13 sugar alcohols)

Sodium : 230 mg

Protein: 16 g

Vitamins: claim is 21 Vitamins and minerals.

A little high on sodium, but still manageable. I still like the nu go slim bars better over all.

I live off of Quest bars. I think they are some of the best out there. Mixed berry is my favorite.

I bout them off the GNC website. I bought 2 boxez and they where 25% off with $1 shipping. It made them equal out to about 1.60/bar

      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? 🤷‍♀️
