Can you eat peanut butter, yes or no??



Recommended Posts

I, too, can eat peanut butter...with no problem. I usually put some on a graham cracker. It's a great source of Protein and that combination seems to keep the hunger away for quite some time.

I have not had any problems with Peanut Butter but I have not eaten by the spoonful. I usually put a 1/2 T. in my Protein Shake because I like the taste. My other favorite thing is to take a no sugar added fudgesicle and a tsp on Natural Peanut Butter. Microwave in a bowl about 12 seconds just until fudgesicle comes off stick, mix them together and add a small dollop of cool whip. Fold that in and put it back in the freezer. It makes a really yummy not too bad for you dessert. SOmetimes I like it really frozen and other times I like it not as frozen and more like a mousse. So good and takes care of my decadent cravings!

Powdered Peanut Butter? ?? Somehow I doubt that would taste as good spread on my Wasa cracker. LOL! Must be good in a smoothie though!

You mix 2 tablespoons of powdered Peanut Butter with 1 tablespoon of Water for a sandwich. It's so good. Just like fresh peanuts without all the other added things that are bad for us. Also, you can mix it directly into whatever kind of jelly you like for PB and J! Awesome. I use the real fruit jelly with no sugar added or sugar free. :)

I have to be careful with anything on crackers.

I try to stay away from Peanut Butter as I'm prone to eating it by big spoonfuls.

Hey Jacqui, I had Vegemite on a salada the other day and it hurt so badly!:) I can't eat crackers anymore. Susannah

I have always loved me some Peanut Butter, I can eat it with no problems so far since being banded. bread and I don't get along right now, so I eat it on celery, or alone. just not very often....

For me Peanut Butter is a very satisfying snack. Yes, the fat content is high, but my surgeon even said that a little fat will stave off hunger for longer and he recommends peanut butter. He is not into a totally fat free diet. I don't eat it often, but a heaping teaspoon does wonders. I get the low fat, sugar free style. I blob it on a spoon and slowly suck it off the spoon. Not to much at one time.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
