These Advantage bars are killing me
 

The sugars in them stall my progress, so I've decided not to have any more until I'm out of Induction - in 1 week. The problem is that they're so delicious! They make me crave more sugar, which is a problem in itself, but I also feel like now that I've had a few, I won't be able to restrain myself. I'm thinking that I'm going to need someone to hide them from me for a while :lol:

I've heard they stall weight loss all along the way. Maybe one now and again. I tried them but found them sooooo sweet. I wish they would make one with a quarter the sweetness.

Good luck resisting them! Put them in the car trunk of someone who won't be back for a while. That's my strategy!

I'm with you, Zoseph. I LOVE them. Even though I limit myself to 1 a day and only eat the ones designated as Induction, phase 1, they seem to feed my sugar addiction. I think it makes it easier for me to slide right into real sugar...been there, done that recently.

I was going by what the wrapper said, and it did in fact say that the bar I was eating was acceptable for all phases. I understand that they are not intended for regular/daily consumption, but I doubt that the few I ate are going to drastically alter my progress. Regardless, part of the reason I'm not going to eat them anymore is because of the ingredients listed that aren't acceptable for Induction.

JerseyGyrl, I realize that my previous post came off much harsher than I meant, so I apologize. I took a look at the link you posted and it confirmed my fears that the net carbs for these bars are misleading and could affect my diet. It'll be hard, but I think I'm going to completely cut them from all phases.

My husband uses the Pure Protein bars, don't know if they are any better. They sell them at WalMart/Sams and Wegmans.
