honestly I don't know how their nutrition stacks up, but they're a great price and pretty tasty.

My nutritionist recommended Quest Protein bars. One of the advantage of Quest, other than the fact that they come in a variety of flavors, is that they contain Fiber. I was having issues with Constipation at the time. This is a good approach.

I had sticker shock in them at first as well, but then realized it was an entire meal for $2-$2.50(I usually stock up when they are on sale for $2 a bar) and to be honest where else can I get lunch for $2?

Thanks for the info. I ordered them today. Even after years, I learn things from this site all the time. I am thankful.

FYI, GNC often has them buy 2 get 1 free, and will easily be around 1.65 each at that price. i LOVE Cookies and Cream, i keep them in the fridge and they are extra chewy that way!

hubs and i tried the pumpkin ones and have several of those too, which we really like.

i have fallen off over the past couple of months, but when i am ON program, a Quest bar every afternoon is my snack. working hard to get it together...

What flavors do you recommend? I bought the cinnamon roll, thinking it would be ahmazing, but it was so dense. Are they all that way?? Thanks for any input!

Yeah they are actually. I end up with the chocolate chip every time. Just bought Peanut Butter and chocolate so I see how they taste

They are all pretty dense @@DaisyAmy BUT you can try warming them in the microwave. This makes them a bit softer. I warm mine for about 20-30 seconds, and then eat immediately and they are tasty like that. On the plus side, this also makes the chocolate or cream bits inside depending on flavor get all melted and delicious.

I've never tried a Quest bar that I didn't really enjoy.

Excellent product.

I ran through wal-mart this morning because I left my lunch - I got two of the premiere Protein bars because I had a coupon. I will have to look closer at the Quest bars and the Fiber.

@@mark1733 - what is the Protein (roughly) in them? Fat? Calories?

thanks,

jane

News flash........Quest now has a few Protein powders on the market.

My local GNC stores have it.

I will acquire a canister or two and test drive it soon.

I'll update my opinion in this thread later on.

It's pretty good stuff! I especially like the salted caramel one with some Starbucks via!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
