Peanut Butter

kumaran_raj Posts: 99 Joined: 2003/11/07	2004/12/27, 07:24 AM I cannot find natural peanut butter here!!! I only have smooth or chunky style ones. Which one is better? I cannot avoid it as I loooove PB. Is it okay to take bread with PB as my last meal, about 3 hours before bed? I heard the last meal must be low in carbs. Um, PB is low in carbs I think, but bread? I'm using wholemeal.

DAMN... my last mel is 15 min before bed bread + PB ok if you dont mind the carbs, it depends on your goals.

You need whole wheatbread.....I think whole meal is somthing else. Pb the natural anyways, is like 6 carbs 8g protein per serving......so its farily low in carbs.BUT bread has like 24 or so per slice....eat it out the jar with a glass of milk! If yoru "cutting' i'd skip those carbs before bed.....just my 2 cents, i'd drink a good protein shake......with milk......fewer carbs but more protein. -------------- The following, has not be approved by the FDA or FT, it was not meant to diagnose,treat,or prevent any diease(s) Please consult a moderator or doctor before using any of the suggestions or comments.
