I will only eat Quest bars because when you read the ingredients, they have the fewest amount and it is all understandable. Only other one like it is the Simple Bar but they don't have enough protein. Other major plus is Quest bars have 17grams of much needed fiber. Also, Quest bars only have between 3-5 net carbs. All the rest have 17-25 carbs. GNC has buy 2 get one free plus a coupon for $10 off a purchase of $20. So 9 bars for just a little over $10. I keep going in a few times a week. I usually buy directly from Quest but a box of 12 is $25. The GNC deal right now can't be beat. New white chocolate raspberry are delicious!

Any have a hole in your diaphragm?
Malexa03 replied to CatherineJo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Me too. My entire stomach actually passed through the diaphragm and moved above my heart. My whole stomach was in mychest between my boobs. No wonder I started throwing up before surgery. I hear once it gets there it can twist and then you have to have emergency surgery. My doc used absorbable mesh on both sides of my diaphragm to seal it up. -

On the Kim Pop website there is a "store locator" I put in my zip code and found 3 stores that carry them. About 20 minutes away. I bought original, onion, blueberry cinnamon and wheat. I use laughing cow cheese, sugar free apricot preserves, PB2, and once in awhile a little nutella.

The people who make The Simply protein bar also make two different flavored chips on their website and have 10 or 15 grams of protein.

I am going to see if it works with one of the store bought marinades that I always buy and use when grilling meats.

My primary care doctor doesn't even know I had the sleeve yet. My GYN wrote the support letter. I saw my regular doctor a few weeks before surgery for bronchitis and didn't tell her. When I mentioned it six months earlier she had a fit. Wait till I go in at three months and ask her to run my blood work. She is going to flip out. I am going to laugh. Always more than one way to skin a cat.
