From our favourite foodie! I thought this was very cool.

I am not a fan of Quest bars but I did try this and it turned out great, hubby ate the "cookies" and liked them.  Its a nice change for something different when you get to a year or so post op.

Thanks Daisy! I have no desire to have them for myself. I know some people really like protein bars and thought it might satisfy the craving but also allow for 1/4 protein bar instead of the whole thng.   

Protein bars are often just glorified candy bars... Use them only in case of emergency food... Or Never. 

I learned the hard way. On maintenance I introduced some quest Protein bars. I started gaining weight, got severe RH (reactive hypoglycemia) and only when I realised that it was after I introduced the bars into my eating my issues become really bad. I ditched the bars and in less that a month I dropped the 7 lbs I gained, plus my BS (blood sugar) got much more stable ...and as a side effects of dropping the bars '- I realised that my farts got much less toxic than there were when I was eating them.  

Now I chose more real food like low sugar (or no sugar) jerky or nuts as my emergency food. 

Some "meat" bars (i.e epic bars) are also on my list of acceptable - "purse stable" food I carry with me. 

It is so easy to get acustumed to eating "Franken manufactured food"

Thank you!  Great advice.
