I'm new also at low-carbing.

You might need to check out a 'hidden carb' counter and get the true carb count on the 'bars' you are eating.

I believe this one is located at this site:

http://www.lowcarb.ca/low-carb-tools/hidden_carbs.html


Some of the ingredients act like carbs in our bodies, and they need to be counted as carbs. Put the nutritional info into this counter and it will give you the TRUE carb count.

Also, I believe on the CALP diet, you are to limit your carbs at the non-reward meals. I hope some of the CALPers will reply to your post. Like I said, I am new and I am currently on Atkins. I am hoping to start CALP soon.

Check out the link above and let me know what it says about the bars.

God Bless!
