Peanut Butter = Crack

[kjluvi]

I bought a jar of PB to supplament my CKD with a good EFA source. I figured if I ate one Tbsp a day, I would keep ketosis going and add a tasty treat in the middle of the day.


Little did I know the effect that the jar would have on me.


The first few days, I started out ok, I ate a tbsp a day. But today, I cracked, I had my Tbsp, then another Tbsp, then another Tbsp, and before I knew it I was already halfway through the jar. I have never 'binged' on any particular food until today. I was scarfing down those Tbsps and I litterally couldn't stop eating PB. I knew this wasn't going to work so I filled the rest of the jar with water and mixed in a little salt for good measure. Then I threw it away.


I will never buy PB again, although I will try roasted peanuts. I don't really like the tasted of unsalted peanuts, so I doubt I will binge on them.

watch out, there are still a few NI carbs in pb, eating too much in one sitting can boot you out of keto

I have switched over to peanuts, but they can be binged on just as easily. D:

I'm sure that i'm out of keto by now. Oh well, time to get back on the wagon.

I can't keep PB in the house either

I have a peanut butter cookie recipe that I make regularly, which calls for ~6oz of peanut butter per batch. Through some quirk of physics, it always ends up being double that. I think my peanut butter may be suicidal - it just jumps into the bowl, I can't stop it.
