I thought I was suppose to be getting ll this protein.  I eat those because of my work scedule I drive 3 hours each day  to work I do curves in the morning...maybe i'll try going all week instead of 3xs and then walking on the weekends.  I like my bread also maybe it is the carbs.

You do need to get protein, and it's great you're aware of that... but most protein bars are not a good long-term protein source. Too much extra crap thrown in there to make it taste like a candy bar.

Protein has 4 calories per gram.

Look at your protein bars to se how many grams of protein are in it. Multiply that number by 4. That's the protein calories in your bar.

Every other calorie in that bar is carbs and fat. You'll find it's a surprisingly high number.

I recommend the Body Fortress protein powder at Wal-Mart. It's cheap, it's a good protein source, and it tastes pretty good mixed with skim milk.

Ok I didn't know that I eat the pure protein at walmart they have 20 gr in each bar and 180 calories. 2 g sugar.  I am trying to add you as a friend but I can't find your profile.  I need to add an updated pic of me
Happy to be in

I hate to tell you this but workouts like the ones at Curves where it is the same thing all the time... well your body after a month gets used to the workout and stops. Even if you have had WLS... you need to be able to change the weights, the tempo etc... can't do that with Curves...

I would do some kind of other workout at home and change up your eating as well...

I'm in the same boat.  Lost 40 lb the first 2 months, 10 the second and I've only lost 5 lb since January 31st.  I'm riding my exercycle every day, walking outdoors (not too far, but 6 months ago I was using a wheelchair....) when the weather is nice, and I'm just NOT LOSING.  Sigh.
