Protein Bar from Trader Joes, too much Suger Alcohol?

Ok, I am going back to work on Monday (Thank God) so I did a little shopping today and picked up some protein bars named "Think Thin" so I bought 4 of them and then read that the sugar alcohol is 15g & 13 g.  Should I just give them away or try them?  Is this too much suger alcohol?  Plus the calories are 240 and fat cal is 70, this does not scream Think Thin....any suggestions on protein bars???

Thanks

What's the protein grams in them for the 240 calories?  Can you try a half of one today while you are home, and then another half later in the day, to see how you feel?

My favorite are Pure Protein (small ones are available at CVS).  They have 18-20 grams of protein for 180-200 calories.  My favorite flavor is the Chewy Chocolate Chip.  The sugar alcohol in the Chew Chocolate Chip is 7 grams.  Just be cautious -- they make a large size and a small size.

Hi!

I agree with Debbie. Try them while you're at home. It's different for everyone.

I like Pure Protein bars as well. The small bars. They give me the best 'bang' for my buck!

I generally won't eat a protein bar with more than 200 cals or less than 20 grams protein. I stay away from sugar alcohols as much as possible too because I'm a sensitive dumper. But again, this is different for everyone.

Please be sure not to use the Protein bar(s) as a SUBSTITUTE for a meal!

Instead, it's better to use them to suppliment our calories and proteins. These bars are NOT MADE to be meal replacements!

What else are you bringing to work for food? What's your plan? Don't forget your water!

Hope you have a great week at work.

Well I packed up my lunch tote with wrapped Ham, Greek yogurt, and tuna , not all for the same day....I am also taking my crystal light to go packets and yes my bottled water...I dont think I am going to try the protein bars I'll give them away at work, I am afraid of dumping and the sugar alcohol is a little high... I was told by the nut not to snack just eat 3 meals a day...I was just following the instruction sheet which reads breakfast, snack, lunch snack etc...They confuse me..
