What does your Doctor or Nut say about them?   Not every doctor has the same protocol so what one might say yes to, another might say no. Hugs, Mo

Comparison is the thief of joy!

If we spend our time comparing our life/weight loss/body to others, we totally miss what WE have accomplished.   Keep in mind how far you have come and what you can do now that you couldn't do weeks/months/years ago.   I hate the expression " It's all good", but in this case it fits!   Wherever you are in your journey  ... It's ALL good!!!

I will second what Mo says (we're so much alike, it's scary!), but will also add that even if your doc/nut says okay, take a close look at the protein/sugar count.  Obviously, you want to get the most bang for your buck protein wise, and the sugars should probably stay under 5 grams.  It's hard to find a good-tasting, good-textured protein bar - my fave is Pure Protein, and I've turned several people here onto them.   Friday hugs, Tia

The sugar alcohol content can be enough to cause dumping or other gastro-intestinal distress.   If you want to try a bar, I would do so carefully until you see what your tolerance for the sugar alcohol is. Hugs, Mo
