I know that I saw this posted before, but I was wondering what people are using for protein bars? I thought someone mentioned South beach high protein bars?? well, I found one in my desk at work and took it to school tonight for a snack and whoa! did I dump from that bad boy!! Stomach cramping like I took 5 laxatives (sorry, TMI but so true!!) So, please remind me. Which bars are safest? I realize we all dump from different things, so that's why I said safest instead of safe. Which are least likely to cause trouble? I can't tell if its the sugar or sugar alcohol that did me in. Thanks in advance.

Well I tried Kaski bars and they were ok, as for the sugar or sugar alcohols someone told me to add both up and try to find a bar that is lowest. Also sugar alcohol acts like a laxative so in a couple weeks try a bar again but only do 1/2 of what you did and slowly introduce them into your diet...It might have been just a 1 time thing....good luck and I will let you know what I find also...I was asking about a week ago so I am trying different things also...

I am using the Atkins Advantage bars, high in protein, low in sugars and the choco chip granola really hit the spot. I eat half one day and half the next, so I'm a cheap date stiill. Sorry to hear that you dumped, hope it didn't last too long for you. Inky

Thanks for the reply. I've dumped 3 times now and last night hurt, but it was quick. For that I am grateful. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have to try some Atkins products.

I bought a box of the South Beach bars and I didn't dump from them but they did make me nauseated so I won't be buying those again. My surgeon wants me off shakes and on to bars this week so I'm finishing up the powder I have and then moving on. Not sure what to buy either. I've gotten the Atkins ones before but they taste so bad to me. Hopefully I can just hurry up and get to where I can get protein from food adn not worry about it!! lol

I bought the Pure Protein bars (2 different kinds), and I can eat a whole bar without any troubles. Pure Protein Revolution Choclat Peanut Caramel Bar - 32 g of protein, 2g sugar, 14g sugar alcohol. Pure Protein Chocolate Peanut Butter Bar - 20g of protein, 2g sugar, 7 sugar alcohol I ordered these bars from: http://www.drugstore.com I like the 2nd bar better than the first.... but both are pretty good and my pouch seems to tolerate them both very well. Cheers!
