Peanut butter
If you love it, might I suggest the PB2 brand. low fat, low calories and low sugar. Plus it taste great. Add a bit to sugar free pudding, shakes you name it. I like the PB2 with chocolate. Best of luck.
Early on I would add PB2 to my protein shakes, but I didn't try regular peanut butter until probably 4-5 months post op. Even at that point, it made me feel like I had swallowed cement. That said, peanut butter is not horrible, it's good fats, good protein, but it is a LOT of calories and fat and really just not worth it unless you're in a real pinch. I'd go PB2 all the way.
Peanut Butter = Crack. Stay away from it as long as you can....
