PROTIEN

I AM HAVING PROBLEMS REACHING THE REQUIRED AM'T OF PROTIEN AND DO NOT LIKE THE PROTIEN SHAKES OR ADDITIVES. IS THERE A PROTIEN BAR THAT IS LOW IN CALORIES, HIGH PROTEIN, AND WITHOUT A LOT OF SUGARS OR CARBS????

Hi Carol, There are many ways to get your protein in. There is a coffee drink (much like a starbucks drink) called achieve. It has 20gm of protein and tastes delicious, it comes in 4 different flavors. The adkins protein bars are not bad and they are low in sugar/carbs and about 17gm of protein each. I see you are from miller place. There is a store in commack on jericho tkpe called "viva low carb" they sell many high protein low carb snacks and food. Another store that I love is called the diet shop. They have 2 stores, 1 in west islip and 1 closer to you in ronkonkoma. It's on portion road. The number is 981-0882. Marilyn is the owners name, she is wonderful and helpful. I've had her come speak at our support group in Bay Shore. We have protein tastings at our support group, so people can try different flavors. Many people have found things that they like and are surprised by it. So don't give up. Maybe you'd like to come to our dec meeting. email me for details. Chris
