peanut butter everyday

I eat PBfit which is amazing! Only 50 calories per serving!

I have 32g of peanut butter every night. I make a toasted peanut butter & blackberry jam sandwich & eat it right before I go to bed when I take my vitamins. Some of them need to be taken with fat. I added peanut butter when I realized how little fat I was eating every day in an effort to stay low calorie. I don't LOVE it like some & a serving is a huge amount of it--way more than I would normally put on a sandwich if I weren't weighing it out. I do think it can be hard to get over demonizing certain foods. Years ago, it was fat. These days it's carbs. Just stay in your calorie budget & everything will be fine.

I eat one tablespoon every day before bed.

I eat a T of peanut butter 5 days a week, and I feel no guilt whatsoever. It's a good and tasty treat. My recommendation would be to not assign emotions to food. You should never feel guilty for eating.

^^ This.

For those of you who eat PB everyday and are worried about the calories, try peanut butter powder.

You get the taste and protein w/only a trace of fat, which comprises about 75-80% of the calories in regular peanut butter. The difference comes down to around 188 cals vs 45 cals per 2 tbsp serving.

Funny for me because I void the powdered stuff because there is not what I feel to be enough fat. I have heard though people work this stuff into all sorts of recipes. I wanted to try it in peanut butter cookies or maybe cake frosting and see how it goes!

Yup. I'm often low on my fat goal, so lately I've been having peanut butter with breakfast and as a snack.

I've bought the powder for a few recipes, but it mostly just sits in my pantry.

I've been eating 2 Tbsp daily for weeks now and I don't believe it's caused any problems with my weight loss_it's something i look forward to/enjoy.I rely on it for fats and it fits in my calorie budget.But I sometimes find myself feeling guilty about eating it and I have to convince myself there's no harm being done!_does anyone else feel this way when eating PB or any other foods that could possibly be perceived as fattening,you eat within your calories?

No particular food causes a problem with weight loss...excess calories are what inhibit weight loss.

No food is fattening...foods contain fat...dietary fat has no bearing on body fat...excess body fat is a bi-product of consuming an excess of energy (calories)...so no...I don't feel guilty because there's nothing to feel guilty about.
