Most of us use Quest bars...at my place, I buy one box and get another 1/2 price...also PowerCrunch...

I also make my own Protein donuts from a recipe from Eggface

I have tried many. Without a doubt Quest are the best! chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, White Chocolate Raspberry and Cookies and Cream are favorites.

I prefer larabars. Nine ingredients or less, no artificial sweeteners the sugar is from dates. No GMO's, sugar free, dairy and many are gluten & vegan as well. Qwest bars have stevia in them and I'm allergic to stevia.

If you feel creative you can make your own using your choice of nut butter, and your own Protein powder. You can then add in your choice of mix ins such as dried fruit, coconut, oats, or nuts. Check pinterest for recipes.

I'm very much a fan of the Clif Builders Bar chocolate Mint. Beware they are a little high in calories (270) and carbohydrates (30g). However, this is what I eat before I go into the gym each morning and complete a cardio workout that usually lasts 60 minutes. My Dr does not recommend them for all of their WLS patients but they have told me that with my activity level they are fine if I limit myself to 1 bar per day. Beware they are very good!

I have celiac disease so that takes a bunch of them out of the running, but I do eat and love Quest bars. .. apple pie flavor is my fave.

Larabar makes several gluten free options.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
