What is too many almonds in one day?

[Strickl]

I am on Day 14 of the elimination but in reviewing thinking I really used almonds as a crutch.  If I have been eating 2 servings or -half a cup - did I mess up?  Help

Aside from encouraging you to follow the meal template (available here: https://whole30.com/pdf-downloads/), Whole30 doesn't really have rules about serving sizes. If you think you're eating too many or using them when emotional eating, you can change that now, but it's not a reason to start over. 

If you've been snacking on them because they're easy, try having other options on hand, like cut up vegetables, hard boiled eggs, guacamole or compliant ranch, olives, or leftovers for example. If you're eating them because you're hungry, and your meals aren't keeping you satisfied for 4-5 hours, try increasing the size of your meals and being sure you're including fat with the meal, in addition to any oil you might cook with. If you have really long days or are just extra hungry some days, add another meal or mini meal.
