I can't believe how fattening the pecans are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:sad:
If you eat a cup you have taken in over 600 calories and over 80 grams of fat!!! :mad: My aunt gave me a bunch from South Carolina and they became addicting. :ohwell: I think I just like cracking them open.
Never again.. . . Be careful with the nuts guys.

I stopped buying nuts...I love them, and I just end up eating too many. Kinda like having chocolate or ice cream in the house for me. I feel your pain. 0 -
Amen, lol...you make me laugh!0

I love pistachios especially the Jalapeno ones. 170 per 13 nuts. 13:noway: who can eat just 13.
not me. Just don't buy them any more.:sad:0 -
I buy about a pound of pecans and mix them with a couple pounds of sesame sticks to make my own kind of trail mix. Then I just measure out about a half cup of the mix for 1 snack a day. It's enough to give me that nut taste, but I'm only actually eating 4 or 5.0

It was just too easy.0 -
I premeasure the serving size I want into snack size baggies and throw one in my lunch for the day - then when I'm ready for a snack I know exactly how many nuts (and calories) I'm eating.
Nuts are wonderfully good for you in small amounts daily.0 -
yeh, the amount of fat in nuts threw me off too. i only eat almonds unsalted and i don't eat them that often anymore. lol i miss me nuts! (no pun intended)0

Well the good news is the fat in nuts is the "good" fat.
They are especially good to have if you work out a lot.
Its also a good source of other nutrients.
I love peanut butter and nuts and trail mix.
So long as youre not just snacking away on nuts all the time, you should be good.
I usually have a handful or two before going to the gym.0 -
No nuts for me -...........love them - too many calories - :grumble:0
-
I grew up loving pecans we had a tree out back....
It's crazy just how much fat and calories are in any nuts.... I only eat them on a day where I have worked out immensely:noway:
My grandma sent me a whole 2 lbs for christmas...they just sat in the fridge and I was like uh noooo:noway: :grumble: lol...0 -
I agree! I LOVE cashews, pecans, walnuts.......ok, you get the idea. Once I started reading the labels I stopped buying them. It's ridiculous how much fat and calories are packed inside such small portions. :grumble:0
-
Yep, I love nuts but don't allow myself too many these days (Men, behave!!)
When I go into Manhattan, it is SOOO hard not to get the honey roasted cashews they sell from the cart on the street! Oh man, are they good!!
I could eat an entire canister of mixed nuts in one setting! :laugh:0 -

Almonds people, almonds are great. Less fat, (nut fat is the good kind anyway, so it's not as bad as it sounds), and more protein!0

yeah I love almonds. I buy now the little single serving pouches of plain almonds, I think they are by Blue Diamond and they are great- the perfect serving size and it controls how much you eat.0
