Need a Healthy Snack



Recommended Posts

Have any of you tried KIND BARS? If I really want to crunch and chew these bars can hit the spot. They have some fantastic flavors and even though they are not sugar free they are very low in sugar without using sugar alcohols. I am posting a picture of one of my favorites. In my area they can be purchased at HEB Grocery and at Walmart. I should add these wouldn't be good for new sleevers but maybe for a few months out and maintenance.

Positive : I LOVE them

Negative: I LOVE them

Result: can't have hem ????

I bought some for my wife. 200 calories for a skinny little 40 gram mini-bar.

Not a good calorie/mass offer. Better off with a Three Musketeer bar (240 calories for 54 gram bar)

I have been carrying these Kashi bars in my golf bag for lunch (one around the 5th hole and another around 14).

140 calories for 35 grams...

My new favorite snack is a few mushrooms. I eat the stems, then put a dab of low-fat swiss wedge cheese in the center and eat the cap.

I found two brands of Protein bars that I really like the taste of. Lucky me, there's a nutrition store (mostly jock stuff, but I can find stuff for me too) around the corner from my house. Think Thin- make sure you get the high Protein Bar, there are several flavors. They are around 20g Protein, 0g sugar, but watch the carbs. Also look for OhYeah! One brand. They contain one gram of sugar per bar, around 20g protein, and again, watch your carbs- but super yummy flavors, and great texture.

I found these parmesan crisps at costco - Whisps. 100 calories for 15 crackers. 9g Protein. 0g sugar. 7g fat. Satisfies the need to crunch and after a couple I don't want anymore. Have yet to eat 15 as a portion.

I went online to find these and they sell them at Whole Foods and Market Basket. I braved below zero wind chills to go to Whole Foods in the city and they didn't have them :angry: but I did find their version... they sell "Parm Crisps" - 22 servings per box - each serving is only 5g, each serving has 20 calories, 1 gram of fat, 0 carbs, 2 g Protein. Only ingredient is parmesan cheese. They are tasty, but expensive - the box was almost $8 I am going to look for the Whisps at Market Basket this weekend. Thanks for the tip! :D

I'm the OP with an update: after cutting out Cereal as my afternoon snack and replacing with hummas and celery, I've slowly dropped 8 of the 13 pounds gained from lowest.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
