Gatorade Whey Protein Bar

  • Rating:4 This bar is very filling, however, compared to other protein bars these are very high in calories for the amount of protein provided. I also find the taste to be eh because the chocolate flavors do not taste like normal chocolate.Pure Protein bar.
  • Rating 6 This bar again is pretty filling, and this bar also has a huge concentration of protein compared to the calories. There are around 20g of protein for each bar of all flavors and the calories are usually around 180-200. The taste is overall pretty good, but sometimes the flavor can seem a little rich especially the chocolate ones. There is not very much crunch which could be good or bad depending on what you like.Think Thin bars Rating 8 These bars are definitely one of my favorites. The variety of flavors vary in amount of protein, but several flavors pack 20g of protein in a bar that is around 200 calories. All the flavors are very tasty and are both soft and crunchy. The only downfall of this bar is that it is slightly smaller than most, so it is a little bit less filling.Clif Bar Rating 5Clif bars are classic and most people seem to like their taste. Clif bars have small amounts of lots of vitamins and other good things. However, if protein is what you are looking for, Clif bars are not the best choice. Clif bars usually have protein but typically only about 6-8g. If protein isn’t a huge concern though, these are a great filling choice with tons of flavor options.Zone Bar Rating 4
  • This rating comes purely from nutrition- not taste. The bar is a normal size and for most flavors around 200 calories. The bar is a bit lower in protein than some of the other listed bars- only about 15g of protein. That protein is still a huge amount and great for athletes. The problem is that these bars have 15g or more of sugar compared to the other bars which have only a few grams of sugar. Of course, if this bar tastes better to you than others it is still nutritionally beneficial.

    Dear High School Friend Group,

    My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

    Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

    Blair Waldorf

    The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

    As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

    Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
