These are my absolute favorite. I can't wait till I can have them again. I'm in the soft food phase. No solids for like 3 1/2 more weeks. My favs are blueberry pie or whatever and maple donut.

How many carbs?

Might vary a little from flavor to flavor. Optimum nutrition Cake Bites are incredible too. 20 G Protein, 5 g sugar (3 added), 25 carbs, and 240 cals for three cakes that could easily be one per snack. They're an amazing nearly guilt free dessert.

Ah I see-im not on solids yet but the carbs would probably turn my away. Seems like alot unless its being used as a full Meal Replacement but then again when i can eat idk if i will be up for losing a meal to the bar. I have seen some great reviews on the flavors though-tempting!

I only purchased 2 of these and was only able to eat 1/2 at a time so I used it as one of my Snacks for the day. Honestly I don't count carbs since I have given up all breads, Pasta, and rice.

My plan counts net carbs so once you subtract the Fiber and sugar alcohol it's only 3 net carbs

I don't really count carbs. It's counted on bariatric pal because I have it set on calorie max and Protein goals so it sortof makes up fat and carbs. My carbs basically come from fruit and other natural sources not simple carbs so eff tracking. I don't even really track fat that much because it's mostly dairy fat, which is good for you.

The 4th year med student said no, this is the time to only focus on loss and not long term health but screw that. I'm here to lose weight while building healthy habits. I want to lose but her 1 lb a day expectation can kiss my ass (even though I'm basically on track). About 19 lbs and it's 21 days tomorrow/today?. Time flies!

      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.
