Nuts are truly a miracle food. So good for you, you shouldn't completely omit them from your diet just because it's hard for you to resist overeating them. I love all nuts, especially smoked almonds. I could certainly eat an entire can if I let my id take over. But since they are so calorie dense, overeating them can stall you, or worse, cause a weight gain. Better to portion them out in single serving sizes. I put mine in snack bags and one bag a day is my treat. It takes some willpower but it can be done!
