GOOD PROTEIN BARS

MOST OF YOU KNOW THAT I L-O-V-E "POWER CRUNCH" PROTEIN BARS ... THEY'RE LIGHT & EASY FOR OUR POUCHES TO DIGEST & THEY TASTE GOOD ... TRIPLE CHOCOLATE IS MY FAV, PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE IS NICK'S FAV & VANILLA WAS MS BRITTY'S FAV ... COOKIES 'N CREAM IS PRETTY GOOD AS WELL. BUT, AFTER SO LONG OF EATING THEM DAILY, I'M WANTING A LITTLE VARIETY SO I WENT TO MY FAV PROTEIN STORE, THE VITAMIN SHOPPE, & JUST LOOKED AT THE NUTRITION LABELS & GRABBED ABOUT 20 DIFFERENT BARS. WELLLLLLL, I FOUND ONE THAT IS ... OHHH MYYY GOSHHH ... ABSOLUTELY DELISH!!! IT'S THE "ISS" "OH YEAH!" PROTEIN BAR. WARNING, WARNING, WARNING ... IT HAS REAL PEANUTS IN IT FOR THOSE OF YOU WITH A SENSITIVITY TO NUTS. IT IS ALSO A LOT BIGGER THAN MOST PROTEIN BARS SO NICK & I SHARE IT WHICH BRINGS THE SUGARS INTO CHECK - WE'RE GOING FOR NO MORE THAN 4 GRAMS OF SUGAR PER SERVING. THE PEANUT BUTTER & CARAMEL TASTES LIKE A REAL "PAYDAY" BAR. THE PEANUT BUTTER & STRAWBERRY JUST MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH. &&&, MY FAVVVVVV IS THE CHOCOLATE & CARAMEL WHICH TASTES LIKE A REAL "BABY RUTH" CANDY BAR, ONE OF MY FAVORITE CANDY BARS IN MY OLD, UNHEALTHY, OBESE LIFE. YUMMY! GEEZZZZZZZ, THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS ... HEALTHY PROTEIN &&& THE TASTE OF A BABY RUTH! TOOOO LIKE I SAID, THEY ARE TOO BIG FOR MOST OF US POUCH BABIES TO EAT AT ONE SITTING. ALSO, FOR YOU NEWBIES, THEY ARE HIGHLY-TEXTURES WHICH MAY MAKE THEM HARD TO DIGEST ON A NEW POUCH SO GIVE YOURSELF 4 OR 5 MONTHS BEFORE TRYING THEM ... UNTIL YOUR POUCH & DIGESTIVE SYSTEM IS HEALED FROM THE SURGERY & YOUR POUCH ISN'T SO TEMPERAMENTAL. REMEMBER, THE VALUES ARE HIGHER THAN MOST PROTEIN BARS BUT, EATING HALF THE BAR IS PERFECT!!! FOR A WHOLE BAR THE VALUES ARE ... CALORIES: 370 -380 FAT: 16 - 19 GRAMS TOTAL CARBS: 31 - 32 GRAMS SUGARS: 8 - 9 GRAMS "ISS" ALSO PUTS OUT AN "OH YEAH!" PROTEIN WAFER BAR SIMILAR TO THE POWER CRUNCH BARS ... THEY TASTE PRETTY GOOD ESPECIALLY THE CHOLOCATE MINT ONE. &, ONE MORE BRAND I TRIED ... WELL, I TRIED THESE BEFORE SURGERY & LOVED THEM BUT COULDN'T TOLERATE THEM AFTER SURGERY BECAUSE THEY ARE SO "THICK" & HARD TO DIGEST. I RE-TRIED ONE & I DO OK ON THEM IF I EAT JUST A HALF OF A BAR. BUT, THESE TASTE LIKE A CANDY BAR FOR SURE, INSTEAD OF A HEALTHY PROTEIN BAR. THEY ARE "PURE PROTEIN" BARS ... I'VE TRIED THE CHOCOLATE DELUXE & IT IS VERY GOOD ... SO "RICH" TASTING THAT I CAN EAT MAYBE HALF A BAR, USUALLY LESS, AT A SITTING. THERE ARE ALSO COUNTRY BLUEBERRY PIE, STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE, CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER & CHOCOLATE CHIP FLAVORS WHICH I HAVEN'T TRIED YET. SO, EAT HEALTHY & ENJOY! GOD BLESS Y'ALL ... DAWN & NICK

wooa i tried the*Oh Yeah* bar.. boy that is yummy!! and hubby loves it too! but your right a whole bar has to much calories ect... half is good! haven't tried the pure proteins yet .. but i just discovered the power crunch.. the triple chocolate is great! Just have to figure out where to buy them. love Darquise

I will have to find those. I still love, love the Rock N Roll pnut or almond bars, like a payday. They are awesome!!! I am kinda burnt out on the Power Crunches, but get this....you can buy those suckers anywhere out here!!! They sell them at the gas station in the convenience store!!! :wow: I was shocked to walk in and see them. The labels are slightly different, but not much, same bar. I gotta go find me some Rock N Roll bars, they are by Labrada!! Hard to find at Vitamin Shoppe when I went cause the employees in North Charleston buy them first!!! Thanks! My new fav. treat is the orange flavored prunes!!! I eat about 4-5 per day...didn't work today, but it did yesterday!! THanks Dawn!! Tell Nick hello for me!!! Love, Deb
