Ok. I'm 11 days post op and I put 1TB of Peanut Butter in my Protein Shake. Is that ok? On some web sites I read its ok on some they say stay away. What's your opinion?

I sometimes add just a teaspoon of creamy to mine. And my nutritionist gave me some recipes and one called to add it so I figured its ok.

Some day stay away because Peanut Butter is very high in fat... Alot of RNY patients use PB2 which is a powder form of peanut butter that has 85% less fat than regular peanut butter. You can find it at GNC, The Vitamin Shoppe and Walmart. You can simply add it to your Protein Shake and its very good!!

I went through a phase where I ate it off a spoon when I needed energy. I frequently eat it now for a bedtime snack. We buy a whole grain artisan bread that I slice very thin and toast it, spread a tablespoon of PB on it.

Thanks. I can have toast but not sure on pb. Bannanas are on my list but bit scared. I figured make my old fave. Toast , pb and bannana slices..

I eat Nutella chocolate on the light Sara Lee bread. Also I have it on half a banana for a snack. 1 tablespoon. Like a treat but something healthy I can have.

I Didn't think of that. I thought it may have a high sugar content

One of my favorite night time Snacks is half a frozen banana with a little Peanut Butter. In moderation it's good because its high Protein. But if you're a PB lover, go with the PB2 for the less fat version.

I looked at Nutella today. The sugar content is double my limit. My but says you can mix the PB2 with a little Water as a Peanut Butter substitute. The consistency is different but it's supposed to taste like peanut butter, only minus the fat. I'm sure it'll give you the taste you want with your bananas.

"Nut", not "but"!!! Damn autocorrect... Lol

It kinda gives you the taste but not the richness or creaminess. I won't use it again for that purpose.
