My "H" doesn't eat the candy or "chocolate bars". I think the ones he eats are all vitamin fortified and could be considered meal replacement bars. Is this the type of "protein" bar you mean?
He takes the Atkins Morning Bar for breakfast because he doesn't want to eat at home that early (6 am) and has a lunch of chicken salad (one split chicken breast) on a bed of 1 c of fresh spinach, 2 oz cheese, 1 serving of smokies and about 5 small dill gerkins. A big lunch I make him myself, so I know what is in it and the carb count. He eats another of those bars in the late afternoon and has a dinner I fix, all fresh meat and veggies, and then another bar after dinner. He never eats out, so what he gets, I fix. The morning bar I can excuse...I am not a morning person myself. He is eating all the right stuff, along with the bars. It is the "snack" ones I object to, but I have to say this....he went on Atkins to make it easier for me. He didn't want me to have to be cooking two different meals and let me throw out all the "junk" in the house, even his beloved SnackWells. I ride him a little about the bars, but I guess if they don't bother him and he is still losing weight and is happy with this WOL, I can't complain.
