What is your favorite
What is your favorite protien bar?
Looking for some new ideas to try. My current favorite is South Beach living High Protien cereal bar. To me it is like a rice krispie treat with peanuts and peanut butter drizzle.
Nutrituion is 140 cal, 5 total fat, 15 carbs, 3 fiber, 6 sugars, 3 sugar alcohol and 10 protiens.
I am looking for something maybe with a few less carbs.

Hi Pam,
When I eat protein bars I eat Atkins Advantage Bars 11 g protein
Here is a link on them

Usually I go to Walmart and just read labels and don't really pay attention to carbs...I look at protein first, sugars second and the cals last. (I weigh the protein to cal ratio)

Thanks,
Got some a couple days ago. My DH is enjoying is missed "candy". I bought him the snack bars, chocolate coconut is his favorite. He can still have his mounds bar.
He is adjusting well being on Glucophage, and his low sugar diet is helping both of us. His mother (who lives with us) is another thing all together. She is diabetic, went shopping with his sister, came home with no bake peanut butter cookes, m & M's (2 bags), 2 boxes of sugar covered cereal and ice cream. I breathe deep and remember that she is 85.

Hi!! I get the Premier Nutrition bars from Costco..190 calories..6 total fat..21 carbs..14 sugars..and 15 protiens..
Much higher than yours on everything.. but I look for protiens first.. and TASTE.. these have NO chocolate in them.. Some of those that have chocolate get TOO CHOCOLATEY if you know what i mean? These are nougat,pretzel, carmel,peanuts,and vanilla coating.. TWISTED by name.
They also curb the sweet tooth for me.
Good luck. Alice
I like the fudgey brownie bar from Trim Advantage it has 22g of protein and satifies the chocolate craving.
260 cal, 10fat, 25carbs, 1fiber, 0sugar, 22protein
i know its a lot of calories fat and carbs, but it's great meal replacement and is loaded with protein, but if you cut it in half, it's the same as your south beach bars.
I also like Trim Advantage Peanut Protein bar
150 cal, 3g fate, 24carbs, 2sugars, 6fiber, 13protein
