    Moderation. It's still about calories in and calories out. I buy this product called PB2. Google it and see if you can find a store in your area that sells. It's powder, you take 2 tablespoons and mix with 1 tbsp of water. Viola! You have peanut butter and it's GOOD! Sometimes I mix 2 tsp of natural PB with the PB2. Here is a link to red about it! Even my husband, a PBJ lover likes it a lot! It's just a good compromise when you need it! http://www.bellplantation.com/

    Last thought. If you eat PB by the spoonful out of the jar having no idea how much you are eating then yes, the lbs will come. However, if you PLAN for it in your diet and use a measuring spoon I believe you can eat and enjoy in a very healthy way! :)

    Peanut butter is good in moderation. I would not suggest eating more than the serving size a day. I'm almost tempted to say I would treat it as a "treat" as it's not the healthiest nut and really offer no nutrients outside of protein and some healthy fat (which you could get from raw almonds not to mention almonds are much more healthy).

    Just my 2 cents. I love peanut butter but realize two tablespoons aren't worth 190 calories. :frown:
