Any suggestions for protein bars that are good, but not too high in calories?

Try Quest Protein Bars, lots of flavors - starting at 120 calories depending on the flavor. you can even heat them up a little in the microwave and the brownie one melts a little... yum... i find them at my local health food store. They are also gluten free :-)

Pure Protein bars are the best I've ever taken because they've got 20g of protein and only 2g of sugar and they taste good too. My favorite is Chocolate Peanut Butter and Chocolate Deluxe.

I have a lot of food allergies, so I can't even eat most of them. Also, if you read the labels, a lot of them are filled with some yucky stuff. I eat Larabars, they usually have only 3 ingredients (dates, a nut, a fruit) and taste really good!!! They are not protein bars, per se, but the mini ones are only 100 calories and have in the neighborhood of 3 grams of protein. Not sure about the bigger ones.

I love ThinkThin bars! 20g of protein, 0g of sugar, gluten free, and only 230 calories (for most bars)! I prefer the creamy peanut butter ones, but chunky peanut buttery and brownie crunch are okay too.

I have been using Maximuscle Promax Diet protein bars, 20gr protein, Low GI, with 206 cals per 60gr bar, its like having a meal.

You'll probably have to make them yourself. I never bother with them because they usually have as much or more sugar than a candy bar.

I like Atkins....high protein and fiber with low carb count (minus fiber from carbs=net carbs)... When I get low blood sugar I grab one of those for a quick pick me up....

I agree Quest Bars are the best! They are one of the few that don't have artificial sweetners and have a great amount of fiber and protein, I swear by them. Oh and they are low carb as well.

^This. Pure Protein are the only ones I eat, because of the high protein and low sugar content. And they also satisfy my chocolate cravings...the Chocolate Deluxe are rich, dark chocolatey goodness!

I used to make my own Lara bars. I can dig up the recipe if anyone wants. Or it's easy to google and find one because they have so few ingredients.

I agree with the Quest bars! The only protein bars I will eat! I eat them particularly on travel days (I travel for a living) as I refuse to eat airport food. Blek.

I like the Pure Protein bars. They have 20g of Protein and 200 calories. My wife prefers the Kind bars but only because they are Gluten-Free and she has too.

From what I've seen, protein bars are just glorified candy bars that happen to have some protein. Instead of eating a protein bar, I'd recommend a piece of chicken breast or some tuna for protein.

I love love love the P90X bars.. they are SO good I have to hide so I dont eat them all

I make my own, it is cheap, I can adjust what I like and don't like and takes minutes to make. You can cut the bars in any size and make them high protein and they taste awesome. Message me for recipe.

The Herbalife Deluxe peanut butter bars are great even my husband and son like them. I think they taste more like carmel than peanut butter. Make sure you get the delux bars because the regular ones are kind of chalky. The deluxe bars have 10g of protein and are 140 calories. I hope you like them as much as I do.

I agree with Think Thin bars. I usually get them at my local Whole Foods store. I like the Lemon Drop *had one for breakfast this morning* and white chocolate. I like the Cliff Chocolate Mint but it is higher in calories and carbs.

Find them at Wal-Mart. Those are the two flavors I like.
Peanut butter is 200 calories. Chocolate deluxe 180 calories.

Check out the Myprotein website, They are called MP Max Elle Virtue bar have less than 95 cals and they taste REALLY good for protein bars especially the pecan bars..Use the code MP550434 for a discount.

MP Max Elle Virtue bar (Double chocolate) – 92 cal
4.8g protein, 13.7g carbs, 6.3g fiber (30g per bar)

These don’t have much protein in them and too many carbs. The only reason the cals are so low is because its a 30g serving. They are handy to throw in your handbag or for a treat but I couldn’t eat them regularly or as a meal replacement.
So what I usually do is purchase these larger bars with higher protein and just eat half in one sitting. Just make sure their not too high in carbs.

Ive tried –

2:1 Cookies in cream -230 cal
30g protein - 15g carbs- 5g of Fiber (66g per bar)
Highest in protein and lowest in carbs of what I have came across. It doesn’t taste AMAZING but its edible. Probably has the best nutritional value out of all the ones ive listed – Id recommend you try one before buying a box if your concerned about taste.

Maximuscle Promax diet - 209 cal
20g protein, 18g carbs, 4g fiber (60g Per bar)
Tastes pretty good.

Pure protein – 188 cal
20g protein, 16.6g carbs, 2g fiber (50g per bar)
I just bought this one havent tried it yet.

Weider 32% Protein bar 240 cal
19.2g Protein, 26.9g carbs, (60g per bar)
Haven’t tried this one yet either. But is pretty high in carbs

I like the Pure Protein bars...they are around 200 calories but have a good amount of protein and very low amount of sugar.

Plus, they are delicious!!

I only eat them every once in awhile when I'm on the go and can't pack a snack.

I LOVE the Oh Yeah Protein Bar from Costco - the Peanut Butter Chocolate one tastes exactly like a snickers bar. I usually don't care for protein bars but this one was GOOD!

I love pure protein bars also! I was taking all these supplements, and then a family member gave me a few boxes of pure protein bars. Almost everything I was taking was all in one bar. They're great
