    I put a really thin layer on eice cakes,
    Its only 1/2 tbsp and works for me
    ( note also works well with nutella)

    Also pb protein balls in. He freezer, cold pb seems more flavourful.

    Just today tried PB2. It was good. It is a powder, you mix 2 tbsp pb2 powder with 1tbsp water. I tried both regular and the one w/chocholate--both were good. Get this--2 tbsp are 45 calories. I also loooove peanut butter. I have had a pb&j sandwich on sandwich thins and had a vegtable. That will keep you within your calorie quota for the day. I just cannot overeat the pb-which is exactly what I would love to do. So tonight, I toasted a sandwich thin, mixed up a chocolate pb2 and regular pb2 spread each one on a sandwich thin. This proves to me, that I am really trying to stick with the program, make some comprimises and keep on going.:flowerforyou:

    If you have Trader Joes near you, check out Better'n Peanut Butter. It is all natural, 85% less fat, low sodium, made with real peanuts and get this... ONLY 100 CALORIES FOR 2 TABLESPOONS!!!! I add 1 tbsp to my steel cut oatmeal to stretch the flavor and satisfaction. Sometimes, I also add 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder and 2 tsp brown sugar and I call it my Snickers bar oatmeal. It is a great 250 calorie breakfast, packs a lot of flavor and I am satisfied till lunch.:bigsmile:

    Step One: Wash hands with soap. Make sure to wash underneath fingernails.

    Step Two: Dry hands with clean towel.

    Step Three: Unscrew peanut butter jar.

    Step Four: Use index finger on left hand to get a nice glob.

    Step Five: USe index finger on right hand to get a nicer glob.

    Step Six: EAT PEANUT BUTTER while trying not to touch anything.

    Step Seven: Return to Step one (make sure to wash thouroughly and DONT TOUCH ANYTHING!!)

    Repeat as necessary... but it's important not to contaminate the jar of deliciousness!!! not too much anyway.

    i only eat it rarely due to its calorie density, but when i do have it, i usually spread a tablespoon of low fat pb on a banana. it's very good; even better if the banana is refrigerated.

    I put a tablespoon of PB on half of an english muffin with 1 tsp honey. It's so yummy and keeps me full!

    I used to binge on peanut butter with a spoon and honey so my mothers been so kind as to measure out 25g a day for me and hide the bottle. I also survive on PB2.

    I love peanut butter so much, even if it's almost two hundred cals. It's full of protein and it makes my apple slice snack much more enjoyable :smile:

    I consider pb one of the four major food groups, along with oatmeal, Greek yogurt and vegetables.

    Just bought some P2B and was a little disappointed. 2 tbsp of powder only makes about 1 tbsp of "butter". At 45 cals per tbsp, it's about half the cals of pb but not nearly as good. Plus, it has sugar in it. Dunno, I was just expecting more . . .

    I love PB2. It's great sprinkled on apple slices or added to my banana smoothie. I buy it at Hy-Vee grocery stores. I also buy the natural peanut butter (the type you have to stir the oil) and just pour off the oil. Doesn't spread well but can be put in smoothies or eat with banana or apples slices.

    Actually someone mentioned no-bakes. I have found them to be a reasonable snack and you get pb!

    If I liked PB (I don't like it), then I would eat it with toast.

    I carefully measure out peanut butter using my kitchen scale, and try to use just enough and no more than that.
