[QUOTE="Paul_, post: 2679231, member: 578575"] Just to add, it largely depends how good you are at controlling portion sizes as to what should be "off the menu". Peanuts, for example, aren't the best nuts for carb content. However, if it's peanuts that you're specifically wanting, just make sure you control the portion appropriately. Sure, you'd be able to have more almonds or Brazil's for example, but if only peanuts will do it for you then they're still an option. Very few foods are completely banned for me on my new diet regime. I have, however, learnt how to portion control more effectively in order to be able to say that. Testing, as [USER=517579]@KennyA[/USER] outlined above, is the best way to find out what you personally can tolerate for carb intake. It also allows you to see how you react to foods/meals and dial down the portion sizes of carby items if needed. It's been the most effective of all the tools I've learned when developing my low carb diet. [/QUOTE]
