So i loooove the Quest chocolate chip cookie Protein Bar but they are pretty pricey so i want to know what else is out there. I try not to eat anything with higher sugar then Protein so thats what im aiming for. Im a sweets person so anything sweet is what i like the most.

There are not too many out there with the same quality of Protein at a lower price. I like Quest, Premier Protein, pure Protein and think thin bars. They all cost about the same.

GNC has sales on the Quest bars buy 3 get 1 free. If you have a gold card you will also save. I have used the Quest bars most of the time for a way to get Protein if I am on the go. Not all of the flavors are great but I do like the chocolate chip cookie dough, dark chocolate chunk and coconut . Good calories to protein ratio . lowest amount of sugar.

My absolute favorite is Atkins bars. Specifically, I loooooove the Peanut Butter Pretzel bar.

You don't find the atkins bars too high in saturated fat or fat in general? That's the only thing that has turned me off from those bars. That and most of them are really high in calories.

No, they fit nicely into my meal plans most days.

I like Pure Protein strawberry or Blueberry ( 19-20g and 190-200 cals.) I can get these on sale for 10 for $10 at my local Fry's Grocery( same as Kroger stores for those who have Kroger). They are good in a bind when I may have forgot to pack a snack or if I cannot leave work for some reason. I am not a fan of chocolate or Peanut Butter flavors, but that is just me

you won't find better quality than Quest.

Read the ingredients. Many bars are just junk food disguised as "healthy"

The calories weren't worth the Protein. Many of them seem to be a replacement for a candy bar for me and a trigger.

That is why it's important to look at the ingredients, and Protein content. There are plenty of bars that are 200+ calories with less than 15g of Protein and 12+ sugars, and half the ingredients are chemicals I can't pronounce. Be wise and read everything:-)

Also all post on here are what works for us, we are all different in our journey and what works. I have taken some suggestions that worked wonderfully for me and others that just didn't. :-)

      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! 😞
