Sugar under 10 grams per serving, high in Protein. I look for little else and target 50-75 grams of Protein per day. Lost nearly 85 lbs, and don't count calories (or fat) and don't exercise other then 1-2 miles walking/day. Down to 154 lbs today, 5'10" at six months out from sleeve. I ignore total carbs for the most part, just focus on sugar, but up to you! Be smart!

I generally look at serving size, Protein, and sugar.

I look for a high protein to sugar/carb ratio. I try to keep sugar low and under 10 grams (one digit).

I also read the ingredient list. I look for a few natural ingredients (vs. a long list of additives) and avoid anything that lists high fructose corn syrup.

I definitely avoid anything with High Fructose Corn Suryp, it's probably the worst ingredient out there. I'm looking at Protein levels, ho much or little sugar and total carbs per serving. I also weigh other nutritional benefits (like Fiber, Vitamins etc.)

Good luck
