Just read something that has me re-thinking nuts in my diet.

It turns out that there is a lot of Omega-6 fat in nuts - more than enough to neutralize one of the main benefits of eating grass-fed beef and organic eggs, both of which have a preferable Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio.

Plus nuts are a source of carbohydrates, including a small amount of simple sugars.

Making me think that, when I finish the current bag of almonds I bought to snack on and make almond butter, I'm done with nuts as a regular food item.

I thought I would show a bigger loss. I think it must have been the lentils. Or the late night eating. Doesn't matter - it's a new day today.
