Hello everybody ... I have a ? I want to try a protein bar but as I have been looking at them I see all these Sugar Alcohols in them... I also noticed that they are in quite a bit of sugar free foods... How do you know what is too much??? If any one has any suggestions on a Protein bar or something I would be glad for some advice. I am going into my 4th week out and am having a hard time eating more than 3 times a day 3 ounce each time I can't get in enough protein... But I was weighed today and have lost 31 POUNDS!!! in 20 days WOO HOO! Thank God for RNY! Thanks Jenn

my surgeon didn't want me using protien bars till after 3months. I find that sugar alcohols makes me sick with craps and runs to the potty. I will have regular sugar before thoes. I love zone perfect bars I love love the peanutbutter and chocolate and the new blueberry is sooo yummy!! Good luck to you. I also love the syntrax portien . I get the fuzzy navel and mix with 20 oz water and 2 oz of oj. I also love the cappacchino it is very goos as well. I just ordered the chocolate truffle as well. FYI If you go to best price nutricion online they have great prices and if you live in il and put sav2 you get 5% off I got 2 2.5 pounds jugs of protien with shipping for 50.00 and they are super fast and the protien is soo yummy with no fat or carbs and only 90 calories with 23 g of protien and it goes towards you water intake.

I wouldn't do the protein bars yet.  You may want to try liquid protein such as Zero Carb Isoupure in the premixed bottles.  They have 40 grams of protein in a 20 oz bottle. I used to mix it 1/2 and 1/2 with Chrstal Lite Lemonade and it was pretty good.   This way I just sipped all day and got in my protein. You can get them by the bottle at GN****il you find what you like.  They have loads of flavors but my favorite was Alpine Punch.  Also I liked the grape. If you like them they usually have sales at GNC where you can get them by the case. Good luck!
Regards and hugs,
