Welcome to the used to not be interested in peanut butter and now would snatch a *****'s wig for it club.

I know some folks use PB2, but that was just triggery for me.  I just didnt indulge until maintenance, but some folks seem to be able to moderate their PB intake during loss! (edit to add, I wasnt sure if I could be one of those people, so I didnt even try).

Just wanted to say - word.

I just don't bring it into the house. If you can stop at 2 TBSP, good for you.

 If you can do the 2 tbs and be satisfied then I would find a really good, high quality low sugar PB and go with it. If you find it's causing you to want other things, or those two tbs are not cutting it anymore then I would back off and stop buying it or having it around. I have always loved PB, its a total binge food for me so I don't even try it.

I found a brand of peanut butter that has no sugar and no salt which makes it less addicting.  It is Crazy Richards and it comes in creamy and chunky.  It also has no added fat such as hydrogenated fat and is therefore healthy peanut butter. 

Peanut butter is very satisfying to me, one to two tablespoons, and i have no desire to have more than that even though i have addictive eating problem.  I think it is the way it coats the stomach so it is filling for a long time.

If you think it is becoming a trigger for you, i would stop eating any brand of peanut butter altogether.
