My NUT told me post op in September to eat spoonful of peanut butter to help get my protein in...now in April I still like my spoonful of peanut butter... How bad is this??? I beat myself up over it. I started at 222 and this morning was 176.4. I'm losing slow but I'm proud of how far I have come! Do any of u guys out there do the peanut butter thing???

I LOVE Peanut Butter and my NUT says it's okay but to use it as a fat instead of a Protein. She pretty much says that if a particular food has more grams of one than the other two, then that is the type of food it should be "counted" as. So since PB has more fat than protein and carbs, it is a "fat" or since light greek yogurt has more protein than fat or carbs, it is considered a protein food. I'm wondering what stage it fits into or do I have to wait until I'm through all the stages before I can have it again..........
