These are definitely not a good option for my plan.

thanks for your input, since you have been so successful, I have sort of followed your lead. May be taking these out of my menu until I get to goal. Perhaps this is why my loss seems slow, however I may have them only twice a week. We'll see.

Any protein bar that has higher carb numbers than protein numbers is not a good choice.

A good rule of thumb for processed foods is that they've got to have at least 1 gram of protein for every 10 calories.  So a Luna bar would be okay if it had 12 grams of protein and no more than 120 calories.  Or, for the 9 grams of protein ones, no more than 90 calories.  I do believe they're much more caloric than that!
