My husband has been watching his weight all year long and has lost 28 lbs. so far. He would like to lose another 30 lbs. and then just concentrate on maintaining it. Losing weight once you are older, is a tough process because you have to break all of those bad eating habits and get on an exercise & fitness program.
Robin Fish who is a home business owner with USANA Health Sciences, Inc. sent my husband a box of USANA Peanut Butter Crunch Nutrition Bars to review for all of you. The bars are a convenient & delicious weight-management snack and contain all-natural flavors and sweeteners. They have 10 grams of protein in every bar and they are gluten-free. Each bar has only 160 calories with 45 of those calories being from fat.
Package Information: USANA’S Peanut Butter Crunch Nutrition Bar makes watching your weight delicious! With chunks of peanuts and a smooth chocolate coating, this convenient bar makes a great for you snack. Formulated for you by USANA scientists, it’s low glycemic and protein-packed, giving you sustainable energy while curbing the carb cravings. Each bar contains 10 grams of protein.
Hubby’s Thoughts: My hubby decided to use the nutrition bars to replace his daily breakfast, so every morning he would have one bar along with his favorite breakfast beverage (milk, juice or coffee). The reason he used them to replace his breakfast is because he has to get up every day at 5 am.
The first thing he told me about the bars is that he LOVES the flavor. He expected them to taste “drab” and like “cardboard” but was pleasantly surprised that they tasted great! He loves peanut butter and chocolate together, so these bars reminded him of a peanut butter & chocolate candy bar…but chewier and with more belly-filling substance.
He normally ate his bars between 6am and 7am and wasn’t hungry again until around 11:30…which was great! He then ate a sensible low-calorie lunch and a sensible dinner. Now…my hubby does get a lot of exercise, he is on his feet almost all day long and works 10 to 11 hours a day. On the weekends, he is no couch potato either! The reason I bring this up is because…he ate one bar for breakfast, every day for 14 days and over the course of that 2 weeks, hubby lost 2 3/4 lbs. Yeah!!!
Hubby said the bars are delicious and he felt very satisfied after he ate them. He didn’t feel like he was missing out on a meal and didn’t feel hungry again until 4 to 4 1/2 hours later. He loves that they are individually wrapped and he can toss them into his briefcase in the morning…and go! Yeah!!!
