Can anyone recommend a good Protein Bar? Which ones provide the most Protein but still taste great ...or at least pretty good?

I sampled a few different flavors of my bosses QuestBars and they tasted pretty good. 20g of Protein per serving (60 oz.).

I like the premier ones and they have 30 grams of Protein ;) which is awesome!!

I like these to. The yogurt Peanut Butter is my favorite. Although i don't care for the regular Peanut Butter one to much.

I go with Adkins. Low carb, taste pretty good. 10-15 Protein. So not too bad at all.

I absolutly love the Protein bars made by a company called Premier. The have 30g of Protein and taste really good to be a Protein Bar. You can find them at Cosco, Sam's Club, and I believe Meijer. Nature Valley has one, but it only has 10g of protein, and actually taste great.

I hope you find this beneficial. Good luck on your journey.

I'm a big fan of Quest and Think Thin--both are gluten-free and have 20 g of Protein for their calories. Quest bars are under 200. I don't like Protein Bars to be too sweet, and these fit the bill--sweet but not horridly sweet. :-) Best wishes!

For some reason The Protein bars I enjoyed before surgery are not appealing any more.

The OTC ones have way too much sugar and are basically a glorified candy bar- Here is a recipe I have made a million times for all natural protein/energy bars- You can add chips, raisins etc as you like but they are yummy and all natural...

  • 1 cup organic Almond Butter
  • 1 cup Peanut Butter
  • 1 1/2 cup organic local honey
  • 2 cups of Protein powder
  • 1 cup of rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup flax seeds
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder (optional)
  • add almond butter, Peanut Butter and honey to a bowl and microwave for 90 sec. Carefully mix until smooth. Then add remaining ingredients.
  • Pour /spread into a baking glas or baking sheet and cover-Referigerate over night. THey will get a bit mushy in heat so etiher eat cold or freeze right before going out so they dont mush up. You can also use vanilla powder instead of chocolate and add chips or raisins etc...

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
