Guest guest Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 I think it depends on the veggie.? Something like corn would definitely be considered a carb. But green veggies are generally mild.? You could eat a decent amount of greens and still have a carb portion with it.? I think I remember a list in either the bfl book or on the website?? anyone remember those? As for the bars, I think it depends on your tastes.? My husband and I disagree on bars alot!? hehe? We do like the Zone Perfect Bars alot.? The advantedge blueberry? bars are pretty good too.? I'd be interested in hearing more on bars myself.? I often prefer shakes over bars due to taste.? Also, I've just recently gotten coupons for something called Muscle Milk.? They have bars and drinks.? Anyone know what these are or if they are good? Sara Quick Question Hi all, I have a quetions regarding veggies and protein bars. Are veggies counted as a carb portion? I've seen some meal posts that include a protein (such as lean meat) and a veggie, and am now wondering if I was supposed to be counting those as my carb portion. I am also looking for a good protein bar to grab on my way to school. Any suggestions? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
