Protein bars?

[mawmaw 1]

Am looking for good tasting Protein Bars that have less than 6 grams if sugar and less than 6 grams of fat and high in Protein. Most that I have found are really high in sugars and they make me sick to my stomach... Let me know what you have found that you like. Post surgery weight 259. Current weight 212. Date of surgery 07/08/13.

Everyone has different taste so its a matter of trying...a lot of people love Quest bars which nutrition wise are the best..I dont like them..I like Power Crunch bars but not the highest Protein but better than a cookie lol think thin are yummy and premiere protein are pretty good at 30 grams of pro

So do u buy these bars in the grocery or a specialty store

[Truckerchic 171]

Quest bars can be found at GNC or Vitamin Shoppe, the others at Walmart in the diet and Protein Drink section or grocery store in the health food section

Quest bars. Nuke it for 10 seconds and it will be awesome.

Thank you all. Trying to get to that dreaded Protein number but the Protein Shakes get old and they get too sweet. I will look for all the ones listec

Have you gotten an unflavored Protein powder to add to recipes and things like Soups? There is a pretty good chicken Soup protein on powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury.com...I get sick of the sweet also but there are tons of easy high protein recipes out there..good luck!

I have not tried the unflavored. Does it change the taste of food? I know it has to b used in not hot food because it gets funky in too hot of food

Broke down last week and ordered the Quest sample pack. Just got it today. Had 1/3 of an apple pie bar for a bedtime snack (okay so I just really wanted to try em!). I didn't love the texture but the flavor is pretty good. I'd buy that flavor again. I'd really love a bar that got real texture and isn't just mush.

i have tried multiple unflavored mixes and find them nasty even mixed in food. unjury has rave reviews and I personally hated the unflavored.

I use Quest bars particularly vanilla almond crunch is my favorite right now. I use unflavored Unjury in orange juice and it doesn't change the flavor or texture. Pure Protein bars at Walmart has 20 grams of protein and 1 gram of sugar ... Lightly salted cocktail peanuts gives you about 7 grams of protein for 1 oz. perfect portions Quaker oats oatmeal is another 6 grams of protein ...

Awesome... More great ideas and thank you. I have never been so particular about texture or sweet until after my surgery...seems my taste buds went through a definite transformation. I have been eating kashi products lately higher in Fiber and Protein than the average Cereal, and the bars are pretty good too

When using unflavored you probably want to add it to thinks with a stronger flavor..but I dont notice much of a change. You dont want to heat Protein above 140 because it will start to clump.
