Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

They look great -- I've always found the challenge is finding the one that you like for taste. I recently started eating the Slim Fast High Protein bars which are also 15g of protein but they are a little higher in sugar -- but at least I like them. Some of the others are like eating cardboard!

Yeah, I had some trouble with the bars. I actually found one I loved, ordered 2 boxes, ate one of those and it didn't sit well. So now I have 2 boxes minus 1 bar and they're just sitting there. If I had all the money sitting in my kitchen in un-used protein bars and shakes, it would be a VERY good day!!!!!

The nutritional values look pretty good. But like Jill said - you have to like how it tastes. I have a few that just make you feel yucky - like they just sit or something. But like Edie said, could change later. You just have to try, and try again later. But the values look good, not bad in calories for that much protein. Good luck!!

I find that I did ok with up to 8 grams of sugar and about 7-8 gr of sugar alcohols. Otherwise sounds good. Just pick a time to try them when you'll be home for a while. Eat about 1/4 and see how you feel, work your way up from there. This is assuming you can eat them now, you're still sorta early out, aren't you? I didnt do protein bars til like 5-6 mos. be careful, chew very well

looks good to me, i have noticed with some of those bars you really have to compare the labels and see where your best comparison is and going along with what one tastes the best to you..i like the southbeach, i dont eat them often but when i do thats what i eat

Looks like they are good ones. I prefer the south beach ones as well. Go with what agrees with you.
