I like the Quest chocolate chip cookie dough. I only eat them in an emergency... First of all I think they could be an addiction and I need variety. They are 190 cal 21g Protein 21 carbs.. Yikes... But the best part besides the taste... 17 grams of FIBER!!!!

Pure Protein chocolate Deluxe bars - 180 calories, 20g of protein, 17g of carbs (2g of Fiber, 4g of sugar alcohol). Protein calories to total calories is only 44% so 56% of calories is "other stuff". Not great considering their shakes average 85% of their calories from protein. But the bar is over the top good and when you're on the go, you can't beat the convenience of a bar. They come in a lot of other flavors but this one is just too good and since I probably eat one or two a month I don't need a lot of variety.

I second the Quest bars. Choc chip cookie dough and banana muffin are my faves. Nuke em for 10 seconds and they're warm, soft and delish.

I ordered some online last night Vicki. Anyone have trouble with Protein Bars stalling them? I know sugar alcohols can be bad news from being a professional Atkins dieter lol.

      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.
