you feel like you’re gaining too much  weight because you’re eating too many nuts  

that definitely might be a possibility at  first people might think well nuts are keto 

friendly they’re high in protein fat and low in  carbs right well not all nuts are low in carbs  

now on keto you want to aim for between 20  and 50 grams of carbs per day in fact the more  

you want to lose weight the slower the metabolism  the lower you want to target your carbs for  

but check this out let’s just take peanuts for  example and peanuts are definitely something  

that are very easy to overdo just one cup of  peanuts which isn’t that much is about 146 grams  

comes out to 24 grams of carbs right so  that’s just 24 grams so if you’re trying to  

shoot for 20 grams you’ve already exceeded that  20 gram carbs per day limit and don’t forget all  

the other food that you eat there might be carbs  in that as well so peanuts and then peanut butter  

one cup it’s 258 grams that’s 50 grams of carbs  okay so let’s say you’re doing the celery like  

i just did a video on celery and peanut butter  and you’re you’re dishing this thing out if you  

buy these containers of peanut butter  sometimes they’re about 16 ounces  

so half of that is one cup eight ounces it’s  actually not hard to do half of that and that’s  

50 grams of carbs okay pistachios another real  easy nut to overdo one cup is about 146 grams  

i mean you just say dinner you’re having some  pistachios and pretty soon you’ve just done  

three cups well one cup is 35 grams okay all  right almonds much better one cup is 146 grams  

it’s only 14 grams of carbs okay so i mean you  could definitely overdue almonds as well almond  

butter is much better than peanut butter but it is  high in oxalates so if you have a tendency to have  

kidney stones not a good idea but almonds one  cup 258 grams is about 21 grams of carbs pecans  

are a much better nut as far as low carbs  i like pecans better than other nuts  

one cup 146 grams only four grams of carbs so  watch consuming too many nuts if you want to
