I need a good Protein Bar with high Protein low carbs, calories, fat, & sugars. Any suggestions and where I can buy them? Thanks

I like Quest Bars. They are one of the more clean bars on the market, and they taste really good if you warm them up for just a few seconds!

You can order online, I am not sure what stores though as I live in Canada and it is different here.

I'm torn on Protein bars - in a pinch or every once in a while, I can see needing them.

I have some Quest bars on order - I haven't tried them.

Health Wise (I order from mybariatricpantry.com) has some interesting bars - I like the Peanut Butter bars. I eat 1/2 of one at a time.

Power Crunch - the stats on them are decent. I tried the Cookies and Cream - it was OK.

I like Quest bars too - great stats, and they travel well ( no melting, crumbling, etc.). I have to be careful with them, I ate one at work last week just because I found it in my bag, but they're my go to option when I'm out hiking and need the energy.

You can order them direct or through Amazon, but if you're new to them you might be better off checking out a local GNC - most of their stores seem to carry a good variety and you can buy single bars to try out flavors. I think Vitamin Shoppe might carry them too.

I was also going to say GNC and I know that Walmart carries Protein Bars as well.

I used Pure Protein because they had less carbs and sugar. From what I've read this past week Quest has not exactly truthful in their stats.

Also, ANY Protein Bar can become like candy almost. One is good, two even better and that is a lot of calories and carbs. :). Yeah, I know most aren't calorie conscious and are only concerned with Protein and at the beginning stages that is great. Believe me later, when you are able to eat more, you can overeat with them!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
