PB2 is fantastic in a chocolate whey Protein smoothie (tastes like a Reeces PB cup) - but I cannot imagine spreading it on anything (bleck)

Adams all natural is just so good without all the sugar

Fiddleman- The Safeway in silver firs on 132nd street has a grinder to make your own nut butters. I think that Safeway may be closer to you than whole foods.

Sure, I know exactly where that Safeway is at in Silver Firs ( used to live in Highlands community up the street). Now that I live near Frontier Village of Lake Stevens, I will see if they grind nuts. I know they have a huge nuts center up front with fresh nuts, but have never checked it out before now.

I admit I didn't red anything but the answer is PB2!

It's half the fat/cals of reduced fat Peanut Butter.

You can use the powder in shakes, or mix it with Water and make a creamy Peanut Butter :)

Aaaaand I just saw you don't want PB2. Sorry! I'd recommend an organic/all natural option. I used to use a reduced fat creamy generic brand and it didn't alter my dietary intake very much :)

All whole foods? Any other options to grind your own nut butters there?

I can grind my own nuts with th coffee grinding blade on my magic bullet. I have to add Water so it truely creamy, but there's still th occasional crunchy bit :)

There is just something a little naughty that comes out the phrase "grinding nuts" when it comes from a woman. Lol. Maybe I am a little too silly. :) you get in a certain frame of mind and everything is funny!

I bought some almond and cashew nut butters yesterday. I tried some almond butter on my banana today. Awesome!

Nut butters are so good before running, cross fit, yoga, weight lifting and [fill in the blank with your favorite exercise].

As usual, I got onto google for some more searching and found wild squirrel nut butters:

http://wildfriendsfoodsshop.com/collections/nut-butters

Yeah, I clicked on the link from google as was really intrigued by wild squirrel butter (weird curiosity in me). No, they do not have squirrel nut butter, but they have a lot of interesting and yummy nut butters. Check out the recipes under products menu item. Excited about trying these. Laura I know you want to share in the fun. :)

As an aside, I also found this really nice running blog site:

http://www.peanutbutterrunner.com/stomaching-the-run/

Turns out she (the blogger) really loves banana and nut butter with her running. Nice...

Really enjoyed reading her blog. Check it out(even if you are not into running or yoga)!!!! Many good ideas.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
