What are your favorite protein bars?



Recommended Posts

I finally found one that I like...Robert Irvine's Fit Crunch in chocolate Chip Cooke Dough. It has 190 calories, 16 g of Protein, 8 g of Fat, 14 g of Carbs, 3 total g of sugar. I'm looking for a really good chocolate mint one. What has everyone else found?

I like although they might not be as good calorie wise. Luna Lemon and Larabar Almond cranberry with chia seeds in it. I like the softer varieties but am bio l ebtly allergic to chocolate. And you are right, all Vega products are too good to be,limited to vegans.

I used Quest Protein Bars. These bars were good in that they had high Protein, minimal sugar and also contained Fiber. They also came in a lot of different flavors. Fiber helps with issues of Constipation.

Protein bars are good when you are on the go and can't drag along a blender in order to mix a Protein Shake.

A Quest Protein Bar contains 220 calories and provides 21 grams of protein. A Muscle Milk Light protein shake [2 scoops of powder in a 16 ounce glass] contains 210 calories and provides 25 grams of protein. So they are comparable.

I like the flavor and texture of Quest bars, but I still can’t pass them down very well. I was sleeved four months ago and even though I chew them down very well, they get stuck as when I had the lap band.

I’ve been eating the Premier Protein bars w/ 30g of Protein. I only have these when I’m on the run. I get full with half a bar and will save the other half for lunch or dinner. BTW these are 290-300 calories.

I love the Oatmega bars (50g) 14g of Protein, 200 calories. The chocolate mint bar is my favorite (I cant stand the Quest Chocolate mint because of the aftertaste). The sell these at Walmart.

I use Quest and Pure Protein bars the most often.
I also use Kay's Naturals Protein Snacks (not bars, but soy protein based snacks that come in sweet, salty, spicy, cheesy, options, some are like pretzels, some are cereals, some are little cookie bites. low cal, decent protein and they taste great)
I also use Larabars to snack on, but not for "protein".
Simply Protein chips are pretty good time.

      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.
