It's disheartening. A lot of drug and alcohol abuse as well. I'm trying to be one who "walks the walk and talks the talk", although, no one is perfect.
But still. If a healthcare professional came up to you and told you that you should lose weight, eat better, and generally take care of yourself better would you take that advice seriously if they were overweight? What about the ones who smoke?

Them bastages sure have a lot of fiber.
Don't have a screenshot of the label, but:
35g Carbs
5g Fiber
6g Sugar with a pretty little asterisk that reads:
"Every effort has been made to make sure that the sugars contained in this bar have minimal impact on blood sugar levels and insulin. Consequently, the majority of sugars in the ZERO IMPACT High Protein, Meal Replacement Bar (MRB) are low DE (Dextrose Equivalent) and, therefore, have significantly less impact on blood sugar and glycemic index than most whole grain carbohydrates. This innovation incorporates the use of low glycemic carbohydrates, fiber, high grade proteins, and naturally occuring essential fats from nuts, seeds, and milk proteins and grains. Thie ZI MRB also contains CLA and Sesamin, which maintain healthy blood sugar and insulin levels and reduce body fat."

I think they are completly different products... VPX Zero impact profile is nice IMO for a MRP. I used to have both (Quest and ZI). I used quest bars as a snack and VPX as a more solid snack when I went all day cycling or mountain hiking.
So IMO VPX > Quest for MRP
Quest > VPx for snack

Me personally, Id ignore them lol.
But if I were out of shape, didnt exercise, etc. Id be more hesitant to listen to someone who smokes and is out of shape over a in shape nurse or doctor.
I also feel that the ones who are in shape are the more successful ones at their job, especially in the cosmetic surgery field.
if you are in shape, and look good. Id be more willing to get a procedure done by you over a fat, out of shape doctor, even if they had been practicing for 25 years.
Oh, please note, I wasnt taking a dig at your profession, just stating an observation. And I completely understand how so many become out of shape. Stressful hours, literally unlimited free food by drug reps and doctors, etc etc.RIP mainsqueeze530
y u leave us so early bro?
