  • Pistachios

    Hi everyone, I have another question once again.... I bought some Pistachios and the first thing I did was check on here to see how many of them I can have which would equal 5 carbs. In the first thread is says I can have a half cup of them is that right because that seems like a lot but if that equals 5 carbs then that rox because I love them.

    Re: Pistachios

    1 ounce of non salted dry roasted pistachios is 7.84 g carbs, 2.9g fiber = 4.94 net carbs.

    1 quarter cup of non salted dry roasted pistachios is 8.5 g carbs, 3.2g fiber = 5.3 net carbs.

    This is measured with the nuts in the shell.

      Oops, I shelled them all and put them in a half cup so that means I had too many....

        This is one quarter cup pistachios, without the shell
        8.96g carbs 3.3g fiber = 5.66 net carbs
        So you had twice that number in one half cup.

          Dr Atkins put down 1 ounce of most nuts as being our 5 net carbs in my DANDR!! He listed them by how many nuts of the different varieties were allowed!
          Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

            Oh girl, you HAD to say pistachios didn't you? hahaha... now I know what special treat is going on the grocery list this week. Tsk tsk.
            No stats. Not weighing anymore ever. Will post "before and after" pictures when I want to. The end.

            Vigilance, not perfection.

                  I forgot to put the image up for that rung but I'm thinking about dropping the nuts because I am gaining weight...
