The Lo-Carb bars that I thought had only 3g of carbs actually have an additional 20g of Hidden Carbs according to the Hidden Carb Counter!! I'm so dissapointed!

Can this be right? If so than I blew it yesterday!

Many people find that the 'hidden' carbs in the so-called 'low carb' bars stall them out. There has been an ongoing discussion on this site. If you run a search (find the 'globe' icon on the top of this screen), you'll find loads of discussion.

The bars were a big part of me going off the diet last year, because it "wasnt working".

I think that they are even more insidious than just 20 carbs. I think that what happened for me was the ones that tasted good were the ones that got me craving again. I would love to have something to eat that is quick and safe to eat when I am on the run, but the bars are not it.
