Is anyone else addicted to the natural peanut butter , put out by Kraft. I't
so good that I just can't have it in the house anymore.
The best cure for me is just leave it on the shelve as it's hard to stop at
two tablespoons.

Peanut butter is the new chocolate in my house. I get mine from Whole Foods or
Trader Joes. I love natural peanut butter! And it's the only food I have to
watch these days, since I've lost my taste for most carbs. Really, it's the
only thing I'll eat to excess. But it's *so* addictive. I'm self-employed,
and if I hit my target hours by mid-afternoon, I allow myself a break. It's
astonishing how much peanut butter I can eat during a break. And it's not
because I'm hungry, it's because it tastes so good. I've had to set limits for
myself in order to not o.d. on the sodium.

What I can't understand is how so many people like the "fake" peanut
butter -- once you try genuine peanut butter, the fake stuff tastes, well,
fake.

Oh, the processed stuff is cr*p. It really is. I was doing recipe
testing for a friend who is writing a dog cookbook. A national brand of
PB was on sale so I got it because I thought that it would be easier to
deal with for baking. It probably was but some of the jar was left.
Well, it's been awhile since we had PB stick around the house *this* long...

It doesn't have to be any specific brand to have me yearning!
I can only have it in the house if it's the chunky stuff 'cause I don't want
that kind.

Also, if I don't take that first taste, I don't start the cravings.

Yes, I can't have Smuckers Natural peanut butter in the house. The whole
jar is gone in two days.

And regular peanut butter with trans-fat tastes like plastic and isn't
at all that tasty.

You know what's REALLY good?

Take equal amounts of peanut butter & cream cheese and blend together. You
can add a little bit of splenda. Roll into little balls and roll the balls
into chopped nuts. Keep them in the fridge. Then you can take out one
ball and eat it as a creamy peanut-butter truffle type yummy yum!

No wonder you people are fat. Why on earth would you create something
(and store it in your refrigerator for easy access) that you will
ultimately binge on? Can you say poor planning? Deliberate diet
sabotage? I like candy and chips and ice cream, but would never even
think to keep any significant amounts of those things around the house
because I would eat them.

I don't binge.

Before eating low-carb, I rarely ate peanut butter, and never ate cream
cheese (hated the stuff).
Now they both taste good to me (although I still only have a little peanut
butter each month) and I go through lots of cream cheese. And I'm losing
weight.
I wasn't talking about eating candy, chips, and ice cream. I was mentioning
a cream cheese naturally-low carb snack. I also like to keep deviled eggs
in my fridge, read to eat when I want something small.
I think it is GOOD planning to have natural low-carb things to eat
available.

Don't bother replying, BillyDee. I searched through your posts and saw that
you've never had anything worthwhile to contribute. So you've been added to
my blocked list.

Some people don't binge on things just because they are around. When I
started low carb I had a bunch of stuff around that I used to love, like
granola bars and dried mangos. I never ate any of them and eventually gave
them away. Not every fat person is a binger, it only takes a few more
calories in than used every day to gradually make a person fat.

Exactly!

I'm the only person in my house doing low-carb. There are oreo's, ice
cream, potato chips, candybars, etc. almost constantly in the house. There
has been that type of food around the entire time I've been on low-carb, and
I haven't eaten foods that don't fit into my plan.
When I see others eating those foods that make me sick... and I smell them
and hear the sounds... that is the perfect time for me to go get something
low-carb and delicious, and savor it. Finding new favorite foods to replace
old ones has been helpful to me in making this a permenant lifestyle change.

Something lese that is good: peanut butter like you get at the
healthfood store, ya know the kinda grainy dry [censored] ummm I mean stuff.
Mix it with shredded unsweetened coconut, and a sprinkle of Splenda.
roll into balls, push one semi sweet chocolate chip into middle., roll
again, then roll in crushed pork rinds. Eat right away!!! It is sweet,
nutty, salty. YUM!!!! I make them when our low carb friends comeover
for Survivor night

That sounds like a good PMS food too.
