Awesome! Thank you all so much for the replies! I will be switching to the Protein Bars soon - the shakes are really boring. I hope I like the bars!!

I too like Quest bars. You can order them on netrition.com - one at a time to try different flavors.

Atkins Protein Bars & Health Wise are sooo good. I buy the Health Wise at my surgeons office ( chocolate Caramel Crunch). Atkins Chocolate Chip Granola & Peanut Butter Granola bars are great...

The problem is, I live in India, and I can only order stuff from ebay India or other sites that ship stuff to India. So I have a limited choice. Thankfully, Atkins, Oh Yeah, Quest and Thinkthin are listed on ebay India, so I'm going to try those first! :)

The other items listed are: Muscle Milk High Protein chocolate PB, Next Proteins Protein Bar, Special K Protein snack Bar, EAS Myoplex Lite Bars, Pure Protein S'mores, Power Crunch High Protein Energy snack, Supreme Protein Bar, Luna Protein chocolate PB, Met-Rx Protein plus Protein Bar chocolate fudge, Optimum nutrition complete diet protein bar, P90X Peak Performance Protein Bars, NuGo organic protein bar, 2:1 protein bar.

Have any of you tried any bars on that list? Some are quite costly, and I dont have the option of buying sample packs. So I would like to try and avoid the bad-tasting ones.

I like Quest bars too -- they are very high in Protein, and even my nutritionist said they are the best bars in ingredients she has seen ... I especially like the chocolate Peanut Butter and the chocolate brownie ones ... also the peanut butter & jellie ones ... when I want to switch it up, I sometimes get Balance Bars too -- the honey yogurt bars are pretty good and they have, I think, 15 or 16g or protein per bar -- but the Quest ones are nutritionally better for you I think! Good luck!

I found ThinkThin bars too. I am HARD to impress with the taste of these bars, and I love them. Had a ThinkThin crunch bar for Breakfast this morning. Some of them, unfortunately, are pretty high in fat and calories, because of the nuts. One had 20 grams of Protein though. 190 calories, 12 g fat.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
