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---

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.

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.

...and I hope that will be appreciated by all. First, the taste is very good for a "thin" recipe that is supposed to help you to lose weight. The main ingredients of soy and wheat are well-combined for a good taste, IMHO. Second, it does what it is supposed to do: surpress appetite by eating a bar with 8 ounces of water before a meal. Third, it is low-calorie and low-fat as advertised. Very few things are these days. Enjoy! It's working for me.

The Full bar made me feel full a while after eating it. I guess it was the puffed wheat in it, soaking up the water. The nice thing about it is that it is not full of fiber. That much fiber could cause a problem. SO far so good with the product. Not long enough to tell if it really helps the eight loss but easier than surgery!

I did not purchase these from Amazon, I purchased the from GNC and went on Amazon to see if they were cheaper by the case. After I get off work and on my way to the gym I am usually starving to the point I want to stop and get something tasty. The gym sells Tiger's milk bars, not very filling, these made me feel like I a had a substantial snack and was sustained a couple hours after the gym. They are not supposed to be used as a meal replacement and they are relatively low in calories compared to other bars in their category. I will be grabbing one of these before we go to dinner so I do not over-indulge.

I just bought a 3 month supply of this stuff and have been on it for a week. So far im down 4 pounds, but... It's not the best tasting thing. after about the 3rd day i aquired a tast for it. and now i just down em like nothing. so far so good.

Tasty enough, made me feel full just as advertised, but when I tried to overeat because the food was so good, I felt uncomfortable and threw up the excess food. That'll teach me to eat only until I'm comfortable. So, yes, I think they do what they're supposed to do, you eat them, they fill you up so you don't overeat, but if you're crazy enough to still overeat, you'll suffer. Lesson learned.

The taste is good, better than I expected, and they are big. They are a great alternative to a granola bar, and do make me feel fuller. I found that it took a full half an hour for me to truly feel full though, so I had to plan for that. I'll buy this product again.

They taste fairly good considering they're health-food. The one thing that disappoints me is the lack of crunch when biting into the bars. However, the flavor is good (though not overwhelming).

I've tried these chocolate ones, as well as the peanut butter ones. The chocolate is MUCH better. I find the PB to be a little lacking in the flavor department.

I don't think these really help curb my appetite when it comes to the actual meal. They do hold me over until the meal, but I usually end up eating approximately the same amount anyhow.

By the way, these are NOT meant as meal replacements!
