Why the fat?

I agree! Question though. Is peanut butter a good source of fat or will it "bind" me up more?? Just curious!

PB has a lot of fat and protein but also sugar.  I did eat it some while I was losing but have had to cut it out of my diet now that I am trying to maintain.

Not so for REAL peanut butter...you know, the kind with peanuts and salt and nothing else.

Mine has 6g of carbs per 2 tbsp and only one of those is sugar.

It's that other **** that they CALL peanut butter that has all the sugar in it...and it tastes horrid, too!

Work in the kitchen?  ME?!?!  (Think Dobie Gillis..."WORK??")  There must be a brand similar on your side of the Mississippi.  (And do NOT get the one with maltodextrawhateverthehellitis.)

It works great for me :-). I do not bother worrying about the sugar content, but if you're that way, you should go with fresh peanut butter (but not from raw peanuts YUCKO--roasting gives it the flavor it should have). You can buy this in many health food stores and markets like Whole Foods, Wegmans etc. Trader Joe's has it in some locations, too.

Thanks! I love peanut butter. In the night I have a bad habit of waking hungry. I use to go for cookies and what not. Now I eat a couple of spoons full of peanut butter and I'm good. So even with the small amout of carbs in the peanut butter its waaaaaayyyyyyy better then any other junk. IMHO!
