Richard Foor 655 Posted January 27, 2013 I think it would almost have to be in full foods because they really don't seem to meet any of the other categories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vidalia 122 Posted January 28, 2013 Don't get too excited about it. I have tried numerous different kinds and all the ones I have tried are nasty. The titles sound good, but I have yet to find one that I love. The most tolerable ones I have found are Atkins Indulgence Coconut (tastes like mounds) and Fudge Nut (tastes and looks like Little Debbie fudge brownie), but they only have about 6-7 grams of Protein. The ones that have 15 or more I have taken one bite and tossed it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seelessofme 63 Posted January 28, 2013 I like the Zone Protein bars (dbl choc almond). They have I think 12-14g of protein. I'm super picky and those are the ones I can eat without gagging. I saw today Snickers makes one...20 grams of protein it also had 280 calories but not sure if that's considered too high. I thought the protein amt was excellent. Unfortunately I didn't buy it because they didn't have any individual bars and I didn't want to buy the box in case I didn't like it. 1 Vidalia reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Butterthebean 8,146 Posted January 28, 2013 Unfortunately the more Protein a bar has the worse it tastes. I'm not even sure why one would call anything a Protein Bar when it has more carbs than protein. I'm pretty sure that as a sleever, especially a new sleever we need more protein than carbs, which would make "protein" bars a detriment to your food goals. There are better ways to get in your protein is all I'm saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatnomo 102 Posted January 28, 2013 I've settled on Quest Bars. More than tasty enough with a ton of Protein and Fiber. Heat them up a bit for a really tummy treat. Buy on Amazon for best price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JerseyGirl68 1,172 Posted January 28, 2013 Pre surgery I enjoyed PUre Protein brand bars and Atkins chocolate Peanut Butter bar. Enjoyed both and plan on keeping some around when I get cleared for all foods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SleeveGirl-TX 183 Posted January 28, 2013 I REALLY like the Power Crunch Peanut Butter Cream. The stats aren't too terrible. Having said that, I've had to ditch them completely over the past month. They stall me out. Sigh. So yeah... I'm saying "see you later" to them until maintenance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
