Does anyone else on here experience frequent constipation when they eat Protein bars? Perhaps a lot might have to do with the fact that I'm lactose intolerant, but the protein bars in general, at least in my opinion, seem to be a lot harder to digest comapred to the shakes, even though those do make me feel constipated as well. For that reason, I've decided to cut down on my consumption of protein bars.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Protein bars are full of inferior and overly processed proteins, as well as sugar alcohols and other fillers which can constipate you (or worse).
I'd avoid them entirely unless you find a brand you can stomach

Get Clif Builder's bars, 20g of protien and its all natural and no constipation (yet).
I had this MetRx bar years ago, like about 8yrs ago, and I didnt eat it all, and I put it down the disposal, and I was in bed, and the kitchen was above me, and my mom turned on the disposal, and I heard this... Chunk..Chunk..Chunk..Chunk.
I think the bar broke the insinkerator. LMAO
My mom then goes.. what is down there? I told her, and she said...and you eat those?
So now you know why you get constipated.
But for me, no I dont have a problem, and all I eat on occasion are the Promax bars. You may though, and some do depending on what are in them.

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

I'm very lactose intolerant, and have no problem with Jay Robb's "no junk" cashew/coconut/whey protein bars. Good stuff.
Usually lactose intolerance = diarrhea, not constipation.
Try eating some salad greens with the protein bars to keep things moving along. And make sure you drink enough fluids. Perhaps put more protein and carb drinks into the mix.

oh great that's all we need.....a constipated, lactose intolerant muscle dude running around in a tank top and eating protein bars, oh bother this is too much.......where's he live?....this is cracking me up!
You are right. But I think you don't need to cut down protein bars in all your meals. You can add more fruits and vegetables together with protein bars. They are not only help you prevent constipation but also provide enough nutrition for your body. I used to consume edamame and green beans. They are not only rich-fiber that could help for constipation prevention but also tasty. I can eat them a lot. 
Besides, drinking more liquid such as water, juice, yogurt...Liquid plays the important role to strong bowel system as well as the body.

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Here's something people don't get: unless your diet lacks protein, buying protein supplements is a waste of money.

Protein bars tend to contain soy. I would advise removing it completely from your diet due to the fact that it poses a risk of gastrointestinal discomfort. Bars cost so much more than powder, and liquid protein permeates into your tissues much faster.

The Gatorade chocolate chip protein bar is my addiction right now. I don't really eat them for protein. I'm sure they're not all that good for you. I was running late one morning and grabbed one at work. Now I eat one almost every day because they're soooo good!
I've tried to cut back, but to no avail. I really think they're is some chemical that has me addicted. They have nearly 400 calories a bar, and by now I thought I'd pack on some weight. My job is insanely active and I've been lifting solidly for a year, so I guess I can afford this glorified candy bar everyday.
