My doc hates Peanut Butter but he said he's ok with me eating it when I'm ready. Has anyone tried this butter? I've never seen it and would love to get because it is very high in Protein.

I would use PB2 instead. 180 cals of PB2 is 20g Protein, rather than 12g.

That is fantastic!!! Congratulations! Will look for that. When is a good time for a tablespoon and what can I eat that with?

PB2 is powdered. You can add Water to make a paste or mix it into other foods or beverages. I put it in chocolate shakes.

I havent tried these but they are some ideas for PB2 recipes.

Problem with PB2 is it has added sugar. Not much, but I still prefer real true no sugar added Peanut Butter.

I dig peanuts and peanut butter, but it's a little too high in fat. That's the only problem.

Just watch the sugar intake.

I have no problems with Peanut Butter. I probably eat a Tbsp.of. day. I have bypass.

I'm very selective on what I put into my body along with giving my family foods. I don't like Peanut Butter anymore but i give my daughter peanut without salt and the only ingredients in it is peanuts. I try to avoid processed foods. When I was out of surgery for a couple of week i started to use peanut butter in my Protein shakes to increase protein. Also, look into almond butter. The products I buy are more expensive but you get what you pay for.

I bought some individual packets of this at GNC to leave in my cooler for when I get back to work.

Not an everyday food but in a pinch I'd rather have something like this than get fast food.

If you're needing a quick snack, my doc says a tablespoon of Peanut Butter is fine. I tried the PB2 and if you're a peanut butter lover like me, I think you'll agree it tastes like crap. Seriously I cannot stand the taste of powdered peanut butter it's no wonder there's less sugar and fat. I would rather not have PB at all if I could only have the powdered stuff. I've been eating a tablespoon every other day the last two weeks and I'm 5 weeks post op. It sat kind of heavy when I first tried it so just listen to your doc. If they say it's ok then go for it. What they don't want is you eating half a container in a day (yeah super gross not sure how anyone pre or post op could do that)

Mainly consists of chickpeas, 2TBSP peanut butter and 2TBSP melted sugar free chips. Mini muffin papers and throw them on the fridge. Perfect little Protein bites and knocks sweet cravings out

I heard that almond butter is better. Any thoughts

Definitely a good source, when you get bored of other things. However, only natural PB....all other PB has sugar or other sweeteners added.
