I ate a small jar of almond butter each week for the past two (or three?) weeks, and my love handles showed up again! Definitely relegated to "occasional" again.

I keep my Brazil or macadamia nuts on a different floor's fridge at work. This way, a degree of separation helps to maintain it as a reasonable quantity. Nut butters are out for me, normally. Tablespoon is tiny.

When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
Nuts and nut butters are like crack brownies to me. I cant buy them as I cant stop eating them. My wife brought home some organic almond butter for me and a dark chocolate bar. As a treat. How cruel is that? yeah There is an empty jar sitting in the recycling jar 12 hours later. Nut butter is evil.

My weakness is coconut butter. I'll polish off a jar of the Artisana brand in a week or less. I'll buy the little packets of creamed coconut and tell myself that I'll make it last a week and eat the whole thing in 2-3 days tops. I keep some nuts in the house but don't touch them. One single cashew or whatever will have me devouring half a bag. I'm getting better though, but man!
Happy Wifey and NEW MOM!

I've realised this week that i can't keep almond butter in the house, i just can't seem to limit myself either...
That coconut butter is dangerous.
Hey, I made a great concoction with Trader Joe's raw almond butter mixed with shredded coconut and beef tallow. Really super tasty as the middle layer between Trader Joe's flattened bananas (bottom) and pressed dates with walnuts (top). I cut them into squares and individually wrapped them and store them in the freezer so I'm not too tempted to eat them. I only eat them when hiking.
I want to try new concoctions using coconut butter and other things mixed together. But unfortunately every time I buy a jar of coconut butter it somehow disappears without me making anything with it.
