  • 1 oz macademia nut butter?

    Would anyone know what 1 oz of macademia nut butter would be teaspoon-tablespoon-wise? I'm doing the fat fast and need to know. Thanks.

    I tried to figure it out but I couldn't. I hope you find out. If I had some of the butter, I would go weigh it for you and see. Sorry!

      According to the USDA database http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/
      1 tablespoon of almond nut butter without salt added weighs 16 grams, and that is just a bit over 1/2 ounce in weight.
      So one ounce would be about 5.25 teaspoons/1.75 tablespoons

      It lists cashew nut butter as weighing the same, so I imagine macadamia nut butter would be similar.
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

          Hi. Thanks ellizellen for the info. I decided to do the fat fast because I am a second or third time around low carber. I lost weight with no problem the first time around. The second and third attempts have not been productive. I have done everything exactly to the T, I've reread the book, I've posted my menu, did everything that was suggested, added more fat, more excercise, did this, did that yada yada... I have done induction for a month and have not lost any weight, I've actually gained a couple of pounds, no lost inches, nothing. My body is not responding to this anymore. I have to do this and make this work.

          This is the first day on the fat fast and it's been difficult. LOL. A block of cream cheese portioned throughout the day is not appetizing.
