Peanut Butter Question

[MGteacher 43]

I was trying to increase the Protein amount of my Unjury shake, so I added 2 tsp. of regular Skippy Peanut Butter. I've already gotten most of it down, but it's not agreeing with me. My guess is that the sugar and/or fat in the pb is causing the problem. I'm only 2 weeks out. Anyone have any insight?

You're probably right in that your pouch isn't ready for it yet. Are you on soft foods yet? I'd give it a couple more weeks and try again, maybe with Natural Skippy or one with less sugar.

I did the same thing very shortly after post op. I've tried it a few times afterwards and I can tell u for me now I am unable to tolerate Peanut Butter. I've gotten so sick from it to where now I totally have a food aversion and the thought of putting it in my mouth gives me shivers. Totally diff than how I was pre op. I never met a food I didn't like pre op. I've developed a few things now and some real aversions.

Have you tried PB2? ? It is a powdered Peanut Butter found on the shelf by regular peanut butter. I add 1-2T to my chocolate Protein Powder and it tastes like Reese's.

Yes it's good I've added to plain Greek yogurt you can mix with Water to make it creamy

I have tired pb with low fat greek plain yogurt is good

Sounds like I just need to stay away from Peanut Butter for the time being. It tasted so good when I licked the spoon. Bummer!

I have had the dried Peanut Butter, but it was years ago. May need to get another jar. Anyone know where to buy it other than online. Last time, I think I had to buy 6 jars and I'm not sure I want to do that.

I've never tried it with yogurt. Sounds interesting.

Wal mart or Kroger Publix or any like Whole Foods

PB2 is awesome! All the flavor, none of the sugar and fat. Great product and a perfect way to get the flavor (and Protein boost) you want without the things you don't want. If your local stores don't have it try a health food store or dietary supplement store. I'm sure you could even buy it online.

PB2 is very nice in yogurt. Very intense peanut taste, and you can add Splenda so it's a little milder.
