Im gonna have to keep some in my desk at work LOL Rachel 270/198

Rachel, I have been able to eat a "small" (15 grams of protein) UTurn bar for quite a while. I find that they really help keep me full for hours and use it as a meal replacement for breakfast and as a supplement IF I didn't get enough protein in for the day. I agree, protein bars as well as shakes are great for backups. Mary

Hi Rachel! I agree with Mary. I usually keep a protein bar in my purse for emergency purposes. I have been able to eat one at a sitting and it does seem to keep me going. I also drink a protein shake almost everyday. Hang in there! Congrats on your weight loss, too! 359/279/???

Rachel, I frequently use the bars as a supplement or a meal, but I eat them over a long time frame (generally an hour or more). I take a bite then go back to what I wa doing, then a few minutes later I may have a drink of something. Then later I'll have another bite of my bar. I have never eaten one in 30 minutes, but they're great as a supplement. I buy them every time I see some and keep some in my desk and at home.
