Oh Yeah wafers

Hmmmm? Kind of a weird taste to them. Of course, taste has never stopped me from eating or drinking something so I can handle them, but I did buy two boxes of them. At least it will keep me from attempting to binge on them. 

The Pure Proteins are quite a bit better, but a lot more calories too.

I haven't tried them.  The only ones I eat are the Atkins Peanut butter/chocolate.  They have a couple of different kinds in that flavor, but its 240 calories (which I think is a lot) but 1 sugar and 15g of protein.  There is one I just bought similar in a smaller bar thats 170 calories, 1 sugar and 10g of protein.  Only ones I found that don't make me feel yucky.

I also like the rocknroll bars.  They're big!  But if I eat a whole bar they make me feel yucky.

 I like the chocolate oh yeah wafers.  I like that it's 14 protein with 7 or 8 carbs.  I can't remember how many.  They are high at 210 calories.   

I get the small Pure Protein bars that are 200 calories and 20 protein/16 carbs.  The only flavor tha I can tolerate is the Chocolate/Peanut Butter.  I think the other ones have way too much aftertaste.

I really liked the Pure Protein Bars before surgery, I am not far enough out to try them now but I hope I still like them...I have a case of them in the pantry from Costco.

I'm still preop but trying different things so who knows if I will like these (but I think I will) after surgery.  They aren't wafers but honest to Pete, they are better than any candy bar I've ever had.  Kind of high in carbs (ok, well better than half a day's portion) but everything else is low:

South Beach Living Crispy Meal Bars.... Caramel Peanut

Calories:  180
Total Fat:  5 g
Sodium:  290
Potassium 75 mg
Total carbs:  25
Sugars:  5 grams
Dietary fiber: 4 g
Sugar Alcohol:  10  --- just noticed this... yikes!
Protein:  12 grams

Maybe I should rethink this but DARN they are the BEST.

 It's the carbs in there that are not OK...25 grams of carbs is a lot when you have to stay under 40 a day ...a glass of milk has like 12 already so go figure...your shakes will have 5 or 6 so those bars are a big nono...maybe for maintenance...Seaview

 Kat, if I'm going to eat a protein bar, I try to make sure that it has more protein than carbs in it.  Those South Beach are high in calories for the amount of protein that you get.  I wouldn't stock up on anything because your tastes may really change after surgery.

 Cindy Lou,  Target has them for the same price as Costco.  The thing about Target is that you get to pick the flavor you like best and don't need to buy the case.  I think 6 bars are $6.12 at Target.

It's hard to find the Oh Yeah bars where I live, but I use the light muscle milk ones daily.
