    I also share peanut butter addiction. I have noticed i crave it more when I'm lowering carbs.....its safer just to keep the carbs up, because I can down a jar in 2 or 3 days easy....and honestly...if I lost all control I could probably down a jar in a sitting, with a spoon.

    i buy almond butter in little single serve packs to help control my nut butter addiction...

    Barney Butter make little packs that are 90 calories a piece...i like that i get to have the whole pack and dont feel guilty about it plus it helps with the craving...

    Well...When you figure it out let me know!! :) hahah i eat a sh#t ton! Eating 3/4 of a jar in 3 days would be doing reeaaallly good for me, aha. I've eaten whole jars in just a day before!... :/ But that was when i was under eating...so i guess i needed those calories anyways, lol.

    I had a peanut butter addiction too. What I did was having one day a week where I would eat one meal that included peanut butter. I could spend the whole week planning it and when I wanted so I just thought "I can have it on Saturday". This way your regulating it and you're not depriving yourself. I'm happy to say that today I can have it when ever I want and not overindulge. Good luck!

    **Stands up**. Hello, my name is Allison, and I have been sober from peanut butter for...25 minutes. Legit, I'm an addicted and would binge hardcore on peanut butter. I would refrain from buying it. OR buy the single serving containers/packs (like Jiff to-go). That way I would know when I hit my 2 tablespoon amount.

    For any food I binge on (pasta, ice cream, peanut butter, bread) I have several tricks: don't buy it, buy it in single-serving sizes, buy it and portion into single servings, FREEZE extra servings (takes more effort to defrost).

    Looks like there's quite a few people who have peanut butter addiction. Funny thing is, my sister has the PB2 in the cabinet but I haven't tried it yet. She uses it in her chocolate protein shakes (OM NOM NOM!). Definitely going to try it out though!

    i want peanut butter now.
    if you crave it, have some. agree with others, you can either find a lower cal version like pb2, or instead of having it on bread you can eat it straight up or have it on apple slices. it's not bad for you, and if it really is a problem then maybe stop buying it for a while

    I can't stop eating it... i tried a new kind with just one ingridient. peanuts. and i can't stop eating it. the past few days i've been eating it so uncontrollably it's horrible im down 3/4 a jar in about 3 days...i still want it but how can i keep it to just on a sandwhich or just on some toast in the morning and not a spoonful or 2 after every meal e.e
    I use to crush whole jars. I had to stop buying it.

    I can't stop buying it.... spoonfuls of peanutbutter and honey is a really ****ing retarded snack
    The peanut butter scare stopped me. I use to buy the Costco Brand (Kirkland) Natural Peanut Butter. Man, I use to tear that stuff up. During prep, I ate like 4 jars. When they stopped carrying it, I stopped buying. All the other brands I have tried doesn't compare. Am I the only one who doesn't stir their jar?

    Hmm. Stop buying it, I guess. Seems the most obvious solution to me. Maybe try something like almond butter - or just raw peanuts, even.

    A lot of people seem to have addictions to PB... Never got that. Hopefully, other people here on MFP (who actually like the stuff) will be able to provide better advice.
    I too am a PB addict....spoonfuls and spoonfuls. My solution was to not NOT NOT buy it!!! You can't eat it if it isn't in the house. I do keep PB2 and Almond Butter. I also recently purchased raw chasew butter. For some reason I can stay out of those. BTW I am also addicted to Fat Free Reddi Whip! I have been known to take a spoonful of peanut butter and squirt Reddi Whip on top. Neither item is in my house!!! :)
