Nut cravings

I dont know if it is that fact that my body wants more protein or fat, or if i just like nuts. It has become an issue in my raw food diet though and it is causing me to gain wieght. Does anyone have any ideas about how to satisfy nut cravings? it is only almonds and cashews, but really i would appreciate any ideas! Before i know it im going to wake up and see an almond in the mirror! THank you rawfoooodies!

I'd say you might not be getting enough calories and so your craving fats which are a very concentrated calorie source. Its also not great for the body and hard on the digestive tract so try eating more fruits instead, not only are they healthy but they're super yummy. Some high calorie fruits are bananas, mangoes, pineapple, grapes.

Personal favorite is bananas!

thank you, it is so nice to have support here, if i told my roomates i couldnt stop eating nuts they would laugh at the fact that nuts are my weakness rather than cake or cookies.
