    QUEST bars for sure!!!!

    More natural than all the others, no added sugar, no artificial sweeteners, no sugar alcohols, low carb (3-6 net/non-fiber carbs per bar mostly from nuts), no soy protein, gluten free, and depending on what flavor range from 150-240 calories each.

    Very tasty!!! My fav is Apple Pie, sooo yummy with 20g protein, 170 calories, 3g sugar, 18g fiber, and only 6 non fiber carbs.

    I find these pretty easy where I live, at The Vitamin Shoppe, and other stores like that. Not at GNC yet.

    GNC definitely carries them... I have been to several GNC locations and they've all had a variety of the Quest bars.

    Oooh I'll have to check my GNC now for Quest bars, they must've just added them. :)

    Sounds like what you really want is protein powder. Any bar is going to pack on a significant amount of carb calories with the protein, by their very nature.

    i like powerbar protein plus.

    they recently reinvented it apparently though, it used to be 300 calories and 50 from fat, now its 210 caloires and 55 from fat.

    it tastes a lot better though. most of the ones that taste decent have a lot of fat. i guess i perfer that over carbs right now.

    the only thing i really don't like about them is all the artifical ingredients. if your looking for all natural, the cliff bar is the only one i know of.

  • PERFECT FOODS BAR!!!

    Gluten-free, Soy-free (excluding Carob Chip flavor), Non-GMO and over 20 organic whole food ingredients in every bar. They range from 18-10 grams of whole food protein depending on which of the 5 flavors you have. NO chemical preservatives, artificial ingredients or refined sugars-EVER!

    They taste like cookie dough without the guilt and they were recently named among Runner's World Magazine's "10 Best Recovery Bars".

    Do yourself a favor and check them out at www.perfectfoodsbar.com. You can order from them direct or use their store locator on their website to find a retail location near you. You won't be sorry!

    SouthBeach High Protein bars are about 140 cals for 10g of protein. They are both tasty without "fake" sugars.

    The Nature Valley protein bars are good too, but they have 190 cals for 10g of protein.
