Most of us use Quest bars...at my place, I buy one box and get another 1/2 price...also PowerCrunch...

I also make my own Protein donuts from a recipe from Eggface

I have tried many. Without a doubt Quest are the best! chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, White Chocolate Raspberry and Cookies and Cream are favorites.

I prefer larabars. Nine ingredients or less, no artificial sweeteners the sugar is from dates. No GMO's, sugar free, dairy and many are gluten & vegan as well. Qwest bars have stevia in them and I'm allergic to stevia.

If you feel creative you can make your own using your choice of nut butter, and your own Protein powder. You can then add in your choice of mix ins such as dried fruit, coconut, oats, or nuts. Check pinterest for recipes.

I'm very much a fan of the Clif Builders Bar chocolate Mint. Beware they are a little high in calories (270) and carbohydrates (30g). However, this is what I eat before I go into the gym each morning and complete a cardio workout that usually lasts 60 minutes. My Dr does not recommend them for all of their WLS patients but they have told me that with my activity level they are fine if I limit myself to 1 bar per day. Beware they are very good!

I have celiac disease so that takes a bunch of them out of the running, but I do eat and love Quest bars. .. apple pie flavor is my fave.

Larabar makes several gluten free options.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
