This might be a dumb question, but some where I read that having those snack containers of Jiff Chocolate Silk peanut butter with strawberries are a good snack. Higher in calories but good protein.

Seemed to go down ok. Keep in mind I have not had my first fill yet. But, my upper stomach lower chest is bugging me again. I had this the day before as a snack & had that discomfort in my chest yesterday.

Is PB not a good thing to have?

Read your nutrition label...That product is no longer available in my area, but if I recall, the chocolate flavor has many more carb grams and many less protein grams than regular peanut butter. Don't forget that protein is your priority!

My surgeon does allow peanut butter on his recommended diet, but does not recommend it until a minimum of 6 months post op.

all foods are different to all people. Believe it or not, I wouldn't have a problem with the peanut butter, but with the strawberries! They don't go down as easy as you would think they would, at least not with me. At this point, you will eat so little, that to have a small amount is not going to hurt. I just had 10 wheat thins and 4 tablesppons of artichoke dip. I am full! and my craving is over!

I eat peanut butter and apples almost daily. The entire snack is about 150 calories, but it holds me for 4 hours and helps me get my protein in. I use the Jif Natural Low Sodium PB. Some times I will get indigestion from the PB, but I also have so nothing new there. I take a zantac a day and that prevents any issues.

Peanut butter was always one of my go to foods as a fat girl... So as delicious as it sounds I will stay away. I have tried a thin spread of pb on toast and I always get heartburn as I did when I was heavy and i hate that so I just deleted it from my grocery list

But it sure sounds yummy !

Sorry... Look for PB2. It come in plain and chocolate. It is really tasty added to protein shakes. It is a powder form.

Where might we find PB2? My protein drink of choice is chocolate. The peanut butter powder would kick it up for me. Getting enough protein is my biggest downfall.

Check their web site. I am not sure of it but you can Google it. I also think that Amazon has it.
