YOU had the gassies and your poor hubby had to sleep on the couch? YES! That is definitely as it should be! LOL!
So, I'll have my big outing on Saturday to trya couple of nutrition shops so I can pay the big price to just try a couple of kinds. I'm all about that pb chocolate pure protein you described!
I'll probably fall in love with them and have a bunch of squishy melted choco thingies in my purse all summer!

Once we figured out what was causing it, the husband took them to work with him so I couldn't eat them anymore. They were always a night "treat" for me. Least to say, he didn't want to sleep on the couch some nights.
The pure protein ones are supper yummy. The peanut butter chocolate was my favorite. I haven't tried the Zone.

Has anyone tried the Zone? Pure Protein? Rock n Roll bars? The Rock n Roll bars sound yummy; kind of like a pay day!

So sorry Jeanne!!!
1. Dr. David Buresh is my hematologist and is VERY WLS savvy and friendly. Getting infusions there is like a day at the spa!
2. Email [email protected] Tell her your story and ask her which iron combination you should be on. Then order immediately. I was able to put my #'s out of the toilet with her Tender Irons!
3. Come to the Super Seminar on June 5th. Vitalady will be there with Q & A and some products. Dr. Keshishian can help direct you as well. He takes high risk patient's that others won't touch so deals with all kinds of deficiencies.
Kudos on the B12!!!!
the AZ Grads of WLS support group meets this coming Tuesday at 5:30. Maybe you can get some support chatter there?
Good luck friend!

I tried a lot of different ones Joyce. My biggest issue is a lot of them have sugar alcohol, and even though I just have a straight VSG now, I get gas with sugar alcohol overload.
My fave are these:
http://www.nashuanutrition.com/store/index.php?target=products&product_id=167
Some flavors of the Oh Yeah have a lot more sugar than the Chocolate Chocolate flavor. The Peanut Butter chocolate is divine but has like 13-14g of sugar alcohol.
Pure protein bars taste great but have 7+g of sugar alcohol. It took me a a few bars to figure out what was going on.

Hi Joyce, I never ate the protein bars because I found most not very good and full of carbs, but when we were at the California OH conference this past weekend, they gave us samples of The Proti Choice Protein bars and they tastied pretty good and arent bad as far as carbs and sugar. The web site is ROXBARIATRIC.COM Where they are sold I dont know but try the web site.
I think they are out of Canada. See you on June 5th. Hope you are doing well. Gail
