    Yea nuts are good but not in the calorie section. I love pecans but they are high in calories too!

    Yes, and I read that the calories from them aren't all absorbed before they're digested. Um-- or something-- (why can't I ever relay this stuff-- sheesh)

    I had also heard peanuts are supposed to curb your appetite. Do any of you know if that's true??

    any protein that contains healthy fats works well for that :bigsmile: So yes, nuts can do that, some are much lower in fats so in turn healthier choices.....
