Just to add that what affects one may not affect others. Sugar Alcohols and glycerin, in moderation, that are found in most bars and shakes don't affect me (glad for that) BUT BUT BUT I only consume either a few times a week and never 2X in one day. So who knows how it would affect me if I did eat/drink more often??? I don't want to chance it.

If you feel that by you eating/drink bars and shakes may be the cause of your slower weight loss or stall...than discontinue...and see what happens. If you start to lose again than you know the answer.
