Previously we had bought raw/no salt added tree nuts and dry roasted/no salt added peanuts. Now buying nuts with sodium for her. Hence the label reading. Was sort of shocked to find many have MSG. but mostly writing to warn you many have SUGAR in the seasoning mix. Actually straight sugar and other forms of sugar too.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05452333714845476967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-61887899044489261752012-02-11T04:00:11.966-08:002012-02-11T04:00:11.966-08:00I'm going to second Roxie's pistachio in s...I'm going to second Roxie's pistachio in shells recommendation. One serving is a lot of nuts and it takes a good while to get the shells off. Nuts are something that are easy for me to overeat but the last time I went to BJ's I bought the huge 3 lb. bag of pistachios and have not had one problem with portioning out a serving and enjoying it. I think something about having to shell them makes me slow down and enjoy them more so I'm completely satisfied with that one portion.<br /><br />You will be amazed at how little you want sugary things a week or so into the diet. BTW, some Paleo people think it's OK to eat plain greek yogurt and I've had that with berries on top a few times when I craved something creamy and sweet. <br /><br />Contact me anytime you need to!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12308631304554235792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-28436369515279852952012-02-10T15:44:43.545-08:002012-02-10T15:44:43.545-08:00Way to go.

It means a lot to me that you're following my blog (you're the only one so far) lol<br /><br />I feel I do so much better with my eating if I stay away from sweets and high carb. So many trigger foods.<br /><br />Take care, have a great day!Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17376068020444645507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-60837861284156949422012-02-10T09:17:21.037-08:002012-02-10T09:17:21.037-08:00Hi Vickie - It sounds like you are probably eating...Hi Vickie - It sounds like you are probably eating close to Paleo. Someone commented to me that she eats "Paleo-ish". Love that.<br /><br />Yes - there is definitely a correlation between my blogging and doing well. When I do well I want to write about it. When I write and others comment, it makes me want to do well. When I don't post for more than 5 or 6 days, odds are I'm struggling.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12401609334253676307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-46798221690855368112012-02-10T08:50:16.318-08:002012-02-10T08:50:16.318-08:00I just ran across my beautiful watermelon bag that...I just ran across my beautiful watermelon bag that I won from you, was it last year or two years ago? Looking forward to carrying it again this spring. <br /><br />Pistachios (still in their shell) are my Nut of Choise. And CVS sells them in small bags. Still being in their shell means it takes me some time to eat them. And yes, I buy them one bag at a time, as well.Roxiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01440676304336222503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-29950289841305628772012-02-10T08:22:07.393-08:002012-02-10T08:22:07.393-08:00do you suppose there is also a correlation between...do you suppose there is also a correlation between your clean days and the fact you are blogging again?Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05452333714845476967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-23472006018038685532012-02-10T08:21:19.573-08:002012-02-10T08:21:19.573-08:00You are making me wonder if I eat Paleo (or nearly...You are making me wonder if I eat Paleo (or nearly) and don't know it. I eat mostly whole foods. I eat very little processed. The processed I do eat is salsa (2T on my omelet each morning) and mustard and salad dressing (with no sugar) and a few other things like that.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05452333714845476967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-52883151340102888812012-02-10T07:01:19.527-08:002012-02-10T07:01:19.527-08:00Good luck with this - and Helen has a wealth of kn...Good luck with this - and Helen has a wealth of knowledge, so you've got the right "go-to" person for help!<br /><br />I gladly accept your offer to be my knitting sponsor. :) :) :) Expect stupid questions on a regular basis.Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09268130692900152965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-78884796179769135812012-02-10T06:27:11.447-08:002012-02-10T06:27:11.447-08:00I had eggs for breakfast today, coincidentally, an...I had eggs for breakfast today, coincidentally, and was thinking how they just don't satisfy me the way other foods do.
