I just purchased two by Quest(cookies & cream and chocolate chip cookie dough)

Haven't taste the cookie and cream yet but the other one is ok. I love their Protein Powder as well and that the fact they sale in singles so you can try out before you purchase a big container. But the cal count is 190 and have 21g of Protein

I'm sure they have them at your local GNC

I switched from Quest Bars to Combat Crunch after Quest switched over to soluble corn Fiber. They just did NOT agree with me anymore after that. So Combat Crunch is my go-to now. My favorite is the Cinnamon Twist flavor, but I also like the chocolate Peanut Butter Cup.

GNC carries them. They are in a black wrapper.

Nope. They just taste like a candy bar to me.

Cool. Thanks again, my surgeon told me no shakes or bars. I never get to 80 grams 65 at best .. I just want to add bars in to help.

Are there any Protein bars out there which do not have sugar alcohols in them? I'd like to up my Protein a little but every bar I've tried has upset my pouch (RNY).

Some of the common sugar alcohols include xylitol, maltitol, erythritol, etc.

If I remember correctly, some of the Quest Bar flavors don't have sugar alcohols. The ones that do use erythritol.

The best Protein bars I have ever had are the Oh Yeah One bars. I don't think I can ever force myself to eat another Quest bar again. The difference is night and day. The Lemon cake tastes just like lemon cake, it is delightful.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
