    Avocados and peanut butter!

    Both are calorie dense and high in fat but its the good fat & they are packed with vitamins & nutrients... I eat a whole (small) avacado with my breakfast daily and get teaspoons of peanut butter to eat with apples...heck if im hungy but dont want to have a full blown meal, ill just have a scoop of peanut butter to calm my hunger pains haha

    AND it gets rid of any chocolate cravings I may have :)
    and im still losing weight consistently so im happy!

    Found a recipe I used years ago for rosemary roasted nuts...yummy and perfect for this type of weather. Trying to get some mufas in everyday. Avocado's are my guilty pleasure, what's yours?

    Why do you feel guilty about avocados? I eat half an avocado everyday (well, at least every weekday). They are calorie dense, but they are super good for you. Just like almond butter - you just can't eat too much :)

    Don't feel bad!

    thats what i was going to say. Avocados are great for you. Just as long as you dont sit down and eat like 10 in a sitting = P I just ate one today with a little salt and pepper. i LOVE me some avocado.

    Mines the same.. avocados. I looove to cut them in half, take the seed out, then fill the hole with salsa. :)

    THIS! :)))))

    i know! i NEED to try this now.. i never have done the salsa thing! i usually just put a dash of salt on and i dont just eat half at a time. its the wholeee shebang for this ladyy

    EDIT - but i dont feel guilty after an avacado..... i feel guilty after say a pint of ben and jerrys or something of that naturee

    I completely don't understand food guilt. It's just food, and if you eat too much you aren't hurting anyone but yourself, so guilt is an entirely inappropriate emotion, that to me suggests you hold someone else responsible for your wellbeing and are feeling guilty about letting them down, which in itself is a dangerous mentality.

    Anyway I eat plenty of foods I shouldn't - wine, crisps, chocolate (dark only), white bread, butter, cheese, but as long as I stay within my calorie limit, I couldn't care less.
