I've been using the Fiber One 90 cal snack bars and they are really good, but only 1 gram of protien. My doc says the special K protien bars are the bomb! 10 or more grams of protien per bar but the calorie content is like 170 per bar. But the protien is supposed to make you feel less hungry. Any thoughts here?

    I love the special K protein bars... they keep me satisfied for a while, so I think it's worth the 170/180 cals :)

    I really like the special k bars, but the fiber 1 bars fill me up more. You will have to try and see.

    I like the Special K bars a lot - especially if I'm on the go and don't have time to make something but I need to eat something to keep the hunger under control. Fiber One bars give me gas really bad so I never buy them anymore. I picked up some Zone bars on my last shopping trip. I think the Special K bars are better and more satisfying. Pure Protein bars are also really good and satisfying.

    Lately, I have been trying to stay away from processed food, and unfortunately, FiberOne and Special K are processed. My suggestion is to look for organic, unprocessed snack bars or just have things like hard boiled eggs, greek yogurt, and low-fat cheese on hand.

    I'm a big fan of Luna bars myself! Lots of tasty flavors and really keep me full when I need a snack!
