yes, you're going to gain 800 lbs from that peanut butter. Lol, I'm just messing with you. Just keep going from here, you don't have to start over or anything - just be sure to avoid it until you get to the nuts & seeds rung of OWLS.

Have you read Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution 2002 edition? If not you really need to because it expalins the HOW and WHY of atkins. It explains what you can and can't have during induction and without it - you have a much better chance of failing.

But don't lose faith! We are all here to help and support you! :hug

Agh...my weakness, both peanut butter and peanuts, I adore them. I cannot have peanut butter in the house. Even if I open the jar to smell it, it gets the better of me.

I try to be strong, the rest of the family love nuts, so I buy them and put them in a little dish and tell myself I am strong and I will not eat them. Why should a few tiny nuts make me give in! But its hard!!! Boy am I gutted when I fail, and it's happened. One nut leads to touble, another and another, then the pots gone (I try to work out how many grams i've eaten and if it was me or all the others!).

If thats not enough, the salt worries me, Fluid attracter!! Its a bum :anger
but we love the challenge....(did I say that).

The lesson here, boys and girls....is to NEVER eat something unless you know whether it's appropriate for the stage of Atkins that you are on!

When in doubt, don't eat it! Have your book handy, or print out the wallet sized Acceptable Foods list and keep it with you.

It's doubtful you will gain, but it's likely that the peanuts might mess with your blood sugar and trigger cravings for more peanut butter. Nuts, and peanuts in particular are a tricky food and even when you reach the nut rung in OWL you need to be really cautious about proceeding with them.

I had some peanut butter when I first started and I didn't lose weight so I gave it up and have been strong ever since. I do now that I am in later staged allow myself a bit of peanut butter but, it's better to not have any till you reach the stage in the ladder.

Soy beans are legumes and according to Rule #4, legumes are NOT allowed during Induction.
