Peanut butter!



Recommended Posts

Peanut Butter is a killer for me too. I LOVE IT. and I just eat the plain Adams brand with nothing added. Still super high calorie even without the sugar.

I shall try this stuff

My nut has told me no no peanut butter now.

They sell PB2 just about everywhere now. I used to have to buy it online only. I keep a large jar for when I'm craving peanut butter.. It's nice to make a chocolate, banana and Peanut Butter Protein Shake ;)

Okay - I too really like Peanut Butter - I use Justin's now when I want a little bit, as real stuff tastes better to me.

Biggest thrill that I've found this is that Jiff makes "Peanut Powder" and OMG is it ever amazing! Much better macros than PB2, and better flavor to my taste. One Tablespoon is only 23 calories, .7 g fat, 1.3 carbs and 2.7 protein! (based off their 3 T serving size stats).

I stir a tablespoon of it into my Fage yogurt with a bit of chocolate Protein Powder and sometimes a bit of stevia, and I'm a very happy girl, and it's really satisfying.

It's in the section with the regular Jiff peanut butters in my store.

I had to ban Peanut Butter from my house. I was mixing it into yogurt on a daily basis and was cheating the serving size. I went back to PB2 and while I don't like it as much, it serves it's purpose. The only time I use actual Peanut Butter (natural) in when I mix it into my overnight oats before a long weekend run.

I was happy to discover a brand of Peanut Butter I'd loved when I lived in New Zealand at a local grocery store. It's called Pic's Really Good Peanut Butter and it's yummy and has decent nutritional stats. For a 1 tablespoon serving there's 88 calories, 7 grams of fat, 1 carb, 1 gram of Fiber, and 5 grams of Protein. The only ingredients are peanuts and salt. Since I'm trying to be mindful about my carbs, it's great that it has quite a bit less than other brands. The downside it is that it's definitely more expensive. I also like making fresh peanut butter at Whole Foods.

I'm in the UK and have just bought my first PB2 from Amazon. Oh bliss, I can now get my Peanut Butter fix guilt free. I didn't dare use the proper stuff in a jar as before my VGS I had to slather my toast with butter and then load the peanut on top of that. Now, I can get that divine taste without the guilt. Anyone got any good recipes?

You should be able to get PB2 at Walmart for sure. I got a16oz container from there a few weeks ago. I think I paid about $4 for it.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
