 Does the trick! |

I purchased these through the fullbar website a few weeks back. One, to see if they worked, two if they tasted good and three if other's found them helpful as well. What I found is for me they are tasty and filling. I then gave a few of my overweight patients some to try. They found them to be very helpful. The very overweight patients lost on average 2lbs+/wk for the last 3 weeks. Normal weighted people, like myself, haven't lost in pounds, but I feel firmer as do they. I am a massage therapist, so I am pretty muscular, but I would like to stay healthy and maintain normal eating habits so this bar is great for me for just that reason, but it does seem to help with weight loss as well. I have tried all the flavors of these bars and they are all pretty tasty...No,they aren't horrid or dry, but they aren't snickers bars either. Just a fine, not overly done flavor that does fill you up prior to eating. I ate before lunch and dinner. Smoothie for breakfast.
Just in case you are wondering the average Nutrition Facts on all the bars are:
Total Fat 3g--- Sat. Fat 2g---Trans Fat 0g----Cholesterol 0mg---Sodium 105mg---Carbo's---31g---Fiber 4g----Sugars 13g---Protein 5g---

Believe it or not, these work!

I'm a snack food junkie, especially for anything chocolate. Last year I was on NutriSystem and I was able to lose 25 lbs.; however, as soon as I went back to eating regular grocery store-bought food, I gained it all back.
A month ago I saw a commercial on TV for the Fullbar. I didn't want to order directly from Fullbar (more costly) so I got a couple Fullbar samples from a drugstore (cocoa and peanut butter).
These remind me a lot of Rice Krispy Treats. They are fairly large in size for a diet bar. The peanut butter was ok, and I would probably buy this flavor again if I get tired of the cocoa flavored bars. They appear to be puffed wheat bars blended with some other ingredients. I tried making my own using a Rice Krispy treat recipe but they just were not the same. It must be some missing secret ingredient that causes these to work because when I tried making my own I was just as hungry as I normally would be.
Yes, they are kind of expensive but you will be buying a lot less "other" food and they are way cheaper than NutriSystem would be. Plus I get to eat regular grocery store food so I don't feel like I am missing out, so there are no temptations.
I eat two Fullbars a day. One 30 minutes before lunch and also 30 minutes before dinner, each with a full glass of water. You still eat a regular meal, but much less than without eating the Fullbar. In fact, I almost force myself to eat I feel so stuffed. In two weeks of doing this, I have lost over 10 lbs.

I am a late 50ish woman who is very overweight, and am always, ALWAYS hungry. I'm not so obese, however, that I would ever consider surgery. I read about these bars in a womans magazine and ran right out to get them. I was extremely pleased to note how long it took to eat one. They are big! And they taste decent. They could taste even worse, and I would still be happy. I ate one a half hour before dinner, with coffee. I prepared a small dinner, hoping against hope that this would really work. To my pleasant surprise, I could only eat about 2/3rds of what I had prepared, and now over two hours later, I'm still very full. No idea if this will translate into weight loss, but I'm giving it 5 stars because it feels good not to be gnawingly hungry, even for awhile!! People who don't have this problem can't begin to understand.
One thing, though. I didn't feel full immediately. In fact, I could have happily eaten another bar immediately. It wasn't until I started dinner that I began to feel full. Then it happened very fast.
ONE WEEK UPDATE
I just couldn't be happier!! I have lost 6 pounds since I started these bars a little over a week ago. I have a WII fit, and weigh myself every day. I had been bouncing back and forth, but going nowhere for a couple months. Then suddenly, straight down every day! Both my weight and body mass. I don't really want to lose this much weight on a weekly basis, and I'm sure it will slow down, but I am so pleased, and I'm NOT HUNGRY!! Hooray!!!!!!! Like another reviewer, I also keep bars in the car. Helps when I would otherwise go buy donuts or cookies, or whatever. I could eat a half dozen donuts and still be hungry, but one fullbar and coffee seems to satisfy. As time goes on, I feel full even right after I eat the bar, which helps immensely. |
Very filling.

| I tried the cocoa crisp full bar for the first time today. I followed the directions on the package and ate one with a full glass of water about 30 minutes before the time when I usually have breakfast. I did eat less today. It has been about ten hours since I ate it and I am still not very hungry. It does not taste awful either, not great tasteing, but more than edible. Will see if it really helps with weight loss though. |
Full bars work!

| I started using full bar about 2 weeks ago. Not only do they give you that feeling of being satisfied, they also hold off your hunger longer than if you do not have a full bar. I don't usually like diet products because most of them don't do anything that will power alone won't do, but these do keep me from going off of my diet. They satisfy my large appetite. I don't like the peanut butter flavor, but that is just my own personal taste. Keep in mind that if you want to lose weight you do actually have to take in fewer calories, but I find that the full bars keep me from having cravings and they do make me feel satisfied. You do have to drink the water for them to work. For breakfast I have a full bar and smear peanut butter on it. I don't even have to eat anything else and it holds me up until a late lunch. Without full bar I am hungry again by about 10:00 after breakfast. In 2 weeks I lost 7 pounds on full bar. The only 2 flavors I've tried are chocolate and peanut butter. I like chocolate. |
