For those of us who are extremely lazy, it's the best! I despise cleaning peanut butter out of a measuring spoon.
Just wondering, how do you get it out of the jar in the first place? I’m as lazy as the next person, but I dislike any additional items I have to clean, ie: the food scale.
No avoiding getting a knife dirty, but put jar of pb on scale, tare scale, scoop out what you want with knife, note the -grams.
This, but don't forget to lick the knife/spoon. I'm counting all those grams, I am eating every single one of them!8 -
Based on all your other threads I’m concerned for your overall well being. Your approaches are drastic and dangerous. I’ll tell you what, how about you axe all the crazy “diets” and plans you posted about , just eat in a slight calorie deficit every day and I’ll amazon prime you a scale for free? I would be happy to pay forward what this community has taught me
Offer still stands if you come back to your thread
Thanks but I just bought a scale from walmart for like $15. But thats for your offer.
Alright. Good luck. Keep it simple. Small daily calorie deficit. Everything else is majoring in the minors or will lead to adherence issues and binging or straight misery1
