nuts

[Ginagirl 21]

So I go for followups at my doctors office and im loosing about a pound a week. We are given a calorie equation and if the foods you eat arent under a certain amount they are considered "bad foods"

I have calculated all sorts of nuts and they calculate as "unhealthy" I guess due to fat content? Does anyone else eat nuts? What kinds? This.is fairly sad to me since nuts have been a staple for me...and keep me full a little till I can reach actual food

Nuts are one of my favorite Snacks. I do the lightly cocoa covered almonds from Sam's club. It satifies so many cravings in a few delicious bites. I have issues following what the doctors say, only because EACH One tells you something different. At first my latest doc (my clinic has been through 3) told me to pretty much go vegan allowing meat only once a week. I started doing that..during my follow up last month, he told me not to.. GRR

So me, I am mainly focus on my portion sizing. My scale has continually gone down and I've maintained where I'm at. My clothes are still getting loose. So my theory, do what works for YOU. All of our bodies are different and adjust to the sleeve differently. Just careful with the portions darling...

I eat nuts... Mostly ground almonds to cook as a 'flour' substitute and then my second favourite, which is macadamia nuts. I only have them occasionally and about 5 or so. I find they really satisfy my hunger and I know I'm fuelling my body with healthy fat too

My doctor actually recommends eating nuts. They are a good source of Protein. He recommends limiting the amount though because they are also high in fat.

I also eat nuts as a snack. 1 portion of almonds (28 almonds) have about 160 calories. Usually 1/2 that amt satiates me fine. Its 80 calories which is a great amount for any snack.

I bought some of the cocoa covered ones recently. They are good. And they'll satisfy a chocolate craving u may have. What's the calorie limit u were given? Surely its at least 100 calories. Remember, u have a smaller stomach so 1/2 a serving of whatever should be enuf
