Of course you can... as long as you don't eat anything else for the rest of the day! :laugh:19

Nuts are good for you, but, calorie dense, and it was a lesson a lot of us had to learn 🙁3
-
Not a disaster - we all learn something new every single day. Trust MFP, so much information available.3

I’ve done ok last two days.thankfully had just the right amount5
-
I had to stop buying those tasty Blue Almond roasted with flavors ones.
Now it's just plain raw almonds and I can usually eat 17g and be happy with that amount.
Now - trail mix? Fuhgetaboutit.11 -
Pile of almonds will give me knives in my stomach.
To moderate, I keep raw almonds in the freezer. They don’t scream at me from there and I can use them as the incredible nutrition source and fun ingredient that they ARE, rather than use them as mouth entertainment (which I know I have a tendency to do.)7 -
When I eat too many nuts I cling in hope to something I saw on TV that you actually don’t absorb the full amount of calories in them as the body doesn’t break them down fully 😆
I mean. Of course I log all the calories but you know, it sort of makes me feel a smidge happier.
I bought a bag of yummy looking almonds the other day having forgotten just how calorific they are. I haven’t touched the bag yet 😔5 -
I broke down and opened a bag last night (Blue Diamond smokehouse) - I have been measuring out, but I just grabbed the bag last night. .... better than ice cream

Same here. Raw almonds are great except that I want to eat half the HUGE bag

That sounds heavenly2 -
Snacking on healthy food can be just as disastrous as snacking on junk food. Sad but true...6

Almond Disaster sounds like a great ice cream flavour.22

If you have to go, almonds are a good way to do it.1
-
More cautionary warnings in product naming, I say. Salted Caramel Regrets. Fudge Sorrow. Sweet Cream Self Loathing.18

I have almonds every day for breakfast! Either 22 g of almonds only, or 18 g of almonds plus 10 g of roasted edamame (I find the edamame is satisfyingly crunchy and makes the almonds go further, plus it’s more protein).
I always weigh and prepack them so I don’t go crazy.0 -
Let me just ruin your day a little further, go weigh out a serving of almond butter or peanut butter. Its just better to rip off the bandaid at once.3
-
A friend was watching me eat a small palm full of raw almonds and she said you can have as many as you want....THEIR HEALTHY!!!
I then added...but they are not calorie free as I pointed to total calories in package.
Just cause it's healthy does NOT mean its void of calories!!!5 -
LOL I remember the first time i counted calories and realized how many calories were in almonds i literally threw OUT THE CONTAINER right then and there.
that was years ago. this time around i`ve reintroduced them and eat them in moderate portion. I do buy plain (roasted unstalted) though. weigh out my portion and put away the rest.0 -
I get unsalted almonds and I love them. They help keep me full periodically sometimes too. Sadly at the moment I cant eat them because my teeth are still kind of hurting.0
-
I buy the boxes of 100 calorie packs. It's a bit more expensive, but it makes me control my portions.5

Neither can I. Nuts (especially peanuts and almonds) in excess have a laxative effect on me.0 -
I love them roasted .i mix it with cut up protein bars and can go into a handful x10 almond binge. Ugh 🐖 no more lol

Honey roasted with sea salt...1

Blue Diamond Salt and Vinegar Almonds are my weakness! For sure curbs the chip craving tho!2
-
Replace it with almond milk. Its delicious!5

I bought some of those. I opened a bag then commented to my wife that there must be a hole in the bag that the rest of them fell through.

I do mix Almonds and Peanuts for 40g soak them daily and eat them skin off. They really balance into my macros. I started with 20g. Soaked nuts are easy to digest.0
