Peanut butter

[Guest guest]

Amy --

I think you are right on about the peanut butter. I've heard time

and time again from undereaters that PB is a favorite. My own

experience is the same. I always liked it, but didn't *have* to have

it, until I started undereating. What a surprise to find myself

eating 1/2 jar in one sitting -- just me, the peanut butter, and a

spoon. I think I could have eaten the entire container but I made

myself stop.

Now I incorporate it into my meals. Usually for breakfast. I figure

one of these days maybe I won't want it so much, but until then, if

I'm a-wanting it, I'm a-eating it! :-)
