Peanut butter from spoon?

[iamblack]

Guys, i was wondering if anyone take in thier fats in peanut butter straight from tablespoon? Isit weird to do that? How how the hell do u measure 1 table spoon of peanut butter?! I dont have a measuring spoon for that. So its kinda pain in the arse. I planned to buy almonds but they are really expensive, are there cheaper alternaltives?

Well you have measuring spoons which give you measurements from 1/8 tsp to 1 tbsp, yes i was eating it out of the spoon.

Eat pb from spoon daily. Get a set of measuring spoons, they are cheap.

You'll find most people take it from a spoon. A tablespoon in the UK is massive and would contain a load of cals. I take mine from a tea spoon. Essentially it matter not what type of spoon you use. You should know, by weight, what you are allowed. Put thsat amount on a spoon and you know how full that spoon should be in future.

Walnuts, IMO, are the nuts with the most health benefits. I often sub in some sunflower and pumpkin seeds as essential fats.

This will sound crazy, but a lot of the time, I weigh it in grams. Remember that peanut butter is extremely dense. You'd be surprised at how much you're likely over eating if you weighed it. I have used a proper tablespoon, weighed it, and it was still over.

Often, I do the same as Stem and use a teaspoon.

I work in a busy bar where a lot of us are on training diets of one kind or another. Most days from arnd 7pm to 2 am we are WAY too busy to stop and eat anything. We keep a couple jars of pb around the bar and everyone just grabs a teaspoon now and then. Great way to grab som cals quick and easy.

So how do u guys count calories with teaspoons?

3 tsp = 1tbsp, so 1 tsp of pb is 1/6th of the standard serving size. Easy enough to do the math.
