I had a coupon and was going to try them but if I remember correctly they had quite a bit of sugar alcohols and I didn't want to risk the stomach issues they can cause.

I use these rather frequently. They haven't given me any trouble - their carb count is around 22 or 23 so if/when I eat one, I'm careful with my carbs the rest of the day. They taste good however and I can only get through 1/2 of one at a time. Try one and see how it makes you feel!

Begging the obvious.......any reason to use these over Quest? I've been using quest since surgery and no sugar alcohols.....just Fiber and Protein

Ok...yes....I know...there are some negligible sugar alcohols.... But in the realm of 5g or less.......

I saw the Think Thin (before I managed to find Quest), and I was wary of the sugar alcohol as well (sugar alcohol never agreed with me pre-surgery, and I don't want to risk it post-surgery).

I do quite like the Quest though...I can only do half at a time, but they're tasty, and about perfect for after a walk or bike ride.

I find Think Thin bars a bit dry for me. I used to eat them occasionally pre-surgery but I always needed Water with them. I'm afraid to try them again now for that reason. I really do like the Quest Bars (Cinnamon Roll, Cookies and Cream, and Apple Pie are my faves)

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
