My First Protein Bar

I found it, I found it, I found it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A protein bar that I can eat!!! I didn't gag it down, and I actually was able to eat the entire thing!!!!!! I'm soooo thrilled. You wouldn't believe how many bars Ive tossed into the garbage after two bites!! I bought a Detour Carmel Peanut Bar. Cals 170 Fat 6 grams Carbs 7 net grams (sugar was 5 grams, more then I allow, but I ate 1/2 then went on a bike ride then ate the other half) Protein 15 grams I'm so thrilled to have something that I can take with me now. I also used the Designer Whey Vanilla and put a scoop of that in my hot chocolate!!! It tasted like something from Starbucks!!!! YUM YUM It's only taken me 5 months and 3 weeks - but I've finally got something that I LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats Laurie! Now where did you find it? Lori

I got the protein bar at WalMart. The powder, I got at GNC

Whew, Laurie... You made it just under the wire! We were going to have to take away your WLS card because all post-ops must find a protein shake/drink or protein bar that they can drink/tolerate/love by their 6 month anniversary or their card distintegrates. Congrats on finding things that work for you! Rich is now into leftover coffee put in the fridge and chilled then mixed with a scoop and a half of IDS Vanilla Cinnamon, a splash of half and half and a sweet 'n low. Actually he made some yesterday with Pumpkin Spice coffee and it was delish. Kathy

WHEW!!!! So glad I made it!!!

Yeah I love em....they are like my candy bar. I even have other nursing students eating em. LOL You can also find them at Sam's Club also....15 bars for 12.95. They remind of a snickers bar! Dawn
