chanel Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Specifically, MaraNatha All Natural Roasted Cashew Butter? Ingredients: Dry Roasted Cashews Safflower Oil Not sure if Safflower Oil is allowed. Craving something buttery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan W Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Safflower oil is not on the prohibited list but it certainly isn't something that will make you healthier. Giving into cravings is not a stellar idea either. Are you hungry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chanel Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Thanks for the quick reply. I will not eat the cashew butter. I am on Day 3 and I still feel pretty in control but I am noticing cravings for things that are more filling than the eggs, chicken, beef, spinach, salad greens, balsamic/olive oil marinades, and sweet potatoes I have been eating. It seems that no matter how much I eat I don't feel full. That's why I thought some sort of nut butter with apples might hit the spot. Will keep looking for compliant nut butters.

GFChris Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Have you thought about posting what you've been eating and getting feedback on it from others in the fourm? i wonder if you're eating enough at your meals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan W Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Instead of a nut butter, I would eat an extra meal or minimeal. Can you eat more starchies? Sweet potatoes baked. Then scoop into a bowl and mix with coconut milk and ghee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted June 4, 2013 Moderators Share Posted June 4, 2013 The cashew butter is about as good as any nut butter. Having some nut butter and an apple is okay. However, if you are looking for something more filling and thinking about nut butter, the overall fat content of your meals may be too low.
