I tried Atkins advantage and liked them but a friend of mine pointed out they are very high in fat, is that true? Please, please, please.......post your recommended protein bars which are ok with LAP-BAND® surgery and good for weight loss. Thanks in advance to all of you.............

I eat Atkins bars. I think they have 8 grams of fat. I don't think it's significant, most other things I eat are very very low in fat. Remember, your body needs some fat to absorb fat soluable Vitamins. Best wishes!

I really enjoy the ThinkThin Protein bars. They have 20-grams of Protein. I am diabetic and the bars do not cause any weird rise in my blood sugar (unlike some others on the market). I actually think that I read somewhere that they were originally developed for diabetics.

You really have to watch some of the 'protein' bars on the market. Some label themselves as protein bars but they really don't have much protein in them. I figure if I am going to use 200 calories on a bar I had better get a good amount of protein and a good flavor. My band is tight in the morning so I eat one for Breakfast every day. They go down really easily for me.

Here is the website for all the nutritional information:

think Thin: Protein Bars, Weight Loss Bars, Nutrition Bars

I purchase my bars at Trader Joe's for about $1.60 per bar.

Good luck!

I like the pure Protein bars. 2-3 grams of sugar per bar, about 20 grams of Protein, and 6 grams of fat. They taste pretty good.

I noticed that the low sugar power bars have a lot of carbs though.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
