South Beach Diet Protein Bar



Recommended Posts

Where have I been? I just discovered the South Beach Diet breakfast wraps. I love the Denver ones. I don't know why it took me so long to find these. I love the Peanut Butter diet Protein Bars. They are my favorite. I was wrong about the calorie content...they are only 210 calories a bar. Awesome in place of a meal and terrific when you crave a chocolate bar.

220 cals is a lot. there are plenty of low carb, 20-22 gram Protein Drinks that run 110-120 calories. the 220 cal bar maybe okay every once in a while but i would not do it regulerly.

I can't vouch for the flavor but the PowerCrunch (GM friend uses them) have:

170 calories

8g fat

8g carbs

1g dietary Fiber

14g Protein

I think I'll stick with my 90 cal Protein shakes though. 8g fat is more than I feel comfortable eating in one place still. :straight

Dody, I cant find them. :)

...Ill keep checking.

Paula, they still have a huge display at my Walmart, but they also have them with all the other Protein Bars near the slim-fast, etc. Ask for some help. I truly think you will enjoy them. I'm pretty sure if one Walmart carries South Beach products (protein bars and frozen foods) that all of them do, but I could be wrong. Grab a salesclerk next time you are in your local Walmart and have them help you.

One of these bars is a meal. I don't think anyone could say that 210 calories is a lot for a meal. I don't mean you have to eat them all the time, but when you have that craving for a candy bar (and I do, it's my weakness) these really are a lot less calories and more Protein then I could dream of in a Take 5 candy bar. I'm addicted to the peanut butter/chocolate ones and that 210 calories for a meal doesn't make me feel guilty in the least. I would much rather eat something then drink a Protein Shake. Sometimes you need the chewing aspect as well.

Cinnamon? Did you get those on the cereal aisle. I think those are the small ones, but I'm not sure. The ones I'm talking about only come in 3 flavors...chocolate/peanut butter, chocolate and vanilla. They are big and they are 210 calories. I don't know anything about the cinnamon ones, but I'm so sorry they gave you an upset stomach. They must make another bar too. I found these over with the diet products and not on the cereal aisle.

I like them too! I have been eating them for a while. I like the chocolate & peanutbutter ones the best so far. I haven't tried the apple cinnamon ones yet. Now that I'm so tight I have a hard time eating the whole thing. Lately I have been drinking the vanilla flavored boost shakes. They're small & tastey! The chocolate boost sucks in my opinion.

      Sometimes reading the posts here make me wonder if some people just weren't mentally ready for WLS and needed more time with the bariatric team psychiatrist. Complaining about the limited drink/food choices early on... blah..blah...blah. The living to eat mentality really needs to go and be replaced with eating to live. JS

        We have to remember that everyone moves at their own pace. For some it may be harder to adjust, people may have other factors at play that feed into the unhealthy relationship with food e.g. eating disorders, trauma. I'd hope those who you are referring to address this outside of this forum, with a professional.


        This is a place to feel safe to vent, seek advice, hopefully without judgement.


        Compassion goes a long way :)

        Seems it would be more compassionate not to perform a WLS on someone until they are mentally ready for it. Unless of course they are on death's door...

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.
