honestly I don't know how their nutrition stacks up, but they're a great price and pretty tasty.

My nutritionist recommended Quest Protein bars. One of the advantage of Quest, other than the fact that they come in a variety of flavors, is that they contain Fiber. I was having issues with Constipation at the time. This is a good approach.

I had sticker shock in them at first as well, but then realized it was an entire meal for $2-$2.50(I usually stock up when they are on sale for $2 a bar) and to be honest where else can I get lunch for $2?

Thanks for the info. I ordered them today. Even after years, I learn things from this site all the time. I am thankful.

FYI, GNC often has them buy 2 get 1 free, and will easily be around 1.65 each at that price. i LOVE Cookies and Cream, i keep them in the fridge and they are extra chewy that way!

hubs and i tried the pumpkin ones and have several of those too, which we really like.

i have fallen off over the past couple of months, but when i am ON program, a Quest bar every afternoon is my snack. working hard to get it together...

What flavors do you recommend? I bought the cinnamon roll, thinking it would be ahmazing, but it was so dense. Are they all that way?? Thanks for any input!

Yeah they are actually. I end up with the chocolate chip every time. Just bought Peanut Butter and chocolate so I see how they taste

They are all pretty dense @@DaisyAmy BUT you can try warming them in the microwave. This makes them a bit softer. I warm mine for about 20-30 seconds, and then eat immediately and they are tasty like that. On the plus side, this also makes the chocolate or cream bits inside depending on flavor get all melted and delicious.

I've never tried a Quest bar that I didn't really enjoy.

Excellent product.

I ran through wal-mart this morning because I left my lunch - I got two of the premiere Protein bars because I had a coupon. I will have to look closer at the Quest bars and the Fiber.

@@mark1733 - what is the Protein (roughly) in them? Fat? Calories?

thanks,

jane

News flash........Quest now has a few Protein powders on the market.

My local GNC stores have it.

I will acquire a canister or two and test drive it soon.

It's pretty good stuff! I especially like the salted caramel one with some Starbucks via!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
