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.

      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.
