Well, I mostly like my peanut butter on a spoon, preferably one spoon after another after another... you get the idea. I got some low calorie/high fiber multi grain bread - comes out to be about the same as an apple per slice of bread. I know fruit is still better than carbs, but i'm trying it for portion control mostly. I'll use much less PB on a slice of toast than on an apple.

I was also thinking it would be a quick on the run bite to eat when I go to the gym first thing in the morning. I'm really nervous about getting dizzy and light headed at the gym early in the morning. I know, I could get up earlier but that's like asking me to cut off a finger.

Now I feel like I'm making excuses or justifying - I really do appreciate the suggestion. I never thought about carrots. And I hadn't heard the belly fat thing... maybe I should keep eating spoonfuls
