I've just read on MSN that shelled pistachio nuts are very healthy as a grazing food for weight loss. Apparently the secret lies in the fact that you have to shell them to eat them and when you see the amount of discarded shells it looks like you have eaten more than you have!. Makes sense but not sure if this works! Just thought I'd share. By the way they are delicious chopped and sprinkled on ice cream!

    Love them but because of the sodium I only eat them once a month, if that. :love:

    There's a Bulk Barn near a movie theater I go to, before I movie I like to get a bag of pistachios to munch on instead of popcorn. <3

    You can buy them unsalted...but they tend to be more expensive. Can't work out why though....you'd think they'd be cheaper in their natural state.

    They are like crack to me. My calorie weakness is pistachios. Cashews too.

    I love them, but my daughter can have an anaphylactic reaction to nuts..and I love her more. So no pistachios (or peanuts, almonds, hazelnuts, brazil nuts, etc...) for me. :sad:

    Hi. Oh yes, love Pistachios! I try not to eat them tooooo often, because of that salt. I do love them though. Anyone having some trouble with outside exercise due to the heat? It's sooooo very HOT here! Feel unmotivated because of the heat. I work in the heat during the week and then can't get motivated to go outside on the weekend right now... ahhhh, so hot. Do love summer though. haha.

    Good luck everyone. I am new to this site and really like it so far.
