I am obsessed with Peanut Butter. Never was a big fan before surgery, but cant get enough of it now. I am 10 months out and for a while I was eating a serving, or two, of PB a day. I started with reduced fat PB then moved to natural PB. Dont crave the natural PB without sugar as much, but it isnt terrible. It is high in calories for so little food, but I work out everyday and needed to add more calories to my overall diet. Nut also wanted me to add more carbs (seemed weird to me when she said, but it seems to be working) So once or twice a week before I go to the gym I will have peanut butter on one slice of Delightful Wheat bread. Gives me carbs and Protein to get me through workout. My nut thinks as long as I meeting my macros and staying under my calories or the day, there is nothing wrong with PB in moderation. That is the part I had to work on. I was going through a jar every 7-10 days for awhile. I now try an limit myself to 3-4 times a week. It fulfills that sweet, rich taste I crave sometimes. Really should try the PB2 or PB flavored shakes.

Started eating creamy peanut butter during puréed stage....3 weeks postop. Ate it at least 3-4 days/week. Switched to super chunky at 6 months once I got brave enough to put whole nuts in my sleeve. Peanut butter and apple or banana slices have been a mainstay snack for the last 6 years.
