Oddly enough, I sometimes with that I dumped.
I feel a little suceptible to eating sweets and bread products, and I know that if I got sick off of it, I'd swear the stuff off for good.
Right now I am eyeing a box of Girl Scout cookies that I had stashed in the freezer. They are looking pretty damn good right about now, but I have avoided temptation so far. Not sure how long that's gonna last.

Here you go. They are freakin' awesome. Use either all white chocolate, all dark chocolate, or a combination of both.

Oh, I know....I know.
I've had these same eight boxes of Samoas since I bought them back in February. I've done a good job of avoid their temptation, but today them seem to be screaming for me to have "just one".
Instead, I'm having a little snack-sized container of sugar-free applesauce. Trust me, it's NOT the same.

What protein bars are you buying? There are plenty of protein bars with high grams of protein with only 2 grams of sugar.
I am sorry you dumped. What exactly did you feel?

I had the Pure Protein s'mores flavor protein bar.....it has 2 g of sugar but 12 g of sugar alcohols.
basically the way I felt was that I was really bad sick to my stomach and I broke out in a sweat and this lasted for about 20 minutes. All I wanted to do was lay down. I don't think I wanna feel that way again. I had another one of them today and I got dizzy. At least they are all gone and I don't have to throw them away.

Those sugar alcohols will kick my butt too.
You need to eat only half at a time. Let me find the ones I buy every so often a bit expensive but worth it. Sugar alcohols will get me really gassy too! sorry you felt so sick.
