Can you eat almonds, peanuts and pistachios on a low-carb diet?

Peanuts, and anything else that fits in your personal carb/calorie count for
loss, can be eaten on a low carb diet.

You can eat nuts in moderation, but rather not peanuts as they are not

true
nuts but really a grain legume (like beans and peas).

Some authors don't like peanuts in particular, but I ate lots of nuts
(peanuts, cashews, almonds, hazel nuts, pecans, macadamias,
pine nuts) during my weight loss phase. Now during maintenance,
my breakfast granola is made from 50% chopped nuts.

Nuts are *very* filling for me and last for a long time. Interesting
thing is that I always considered nuts an abuse food when I was
doing low fat. I ate too much of them (primarily peanuts) if I had
them at all. Now I seem to fill up quickly on them, even though I
never tire of the taste. Good food in my book.

You can, in moderation, but they're not allowed on Atkins Induction.

Peanuts are not true nuts (they're legumes), so have somewhat higher
carbs. All nuts are high in calories, though, so watch your portions.

For me, what I can grab in a handful is very close to an ounce --
I weighed handfuls several times.

I agree and certainly eat a lot of them too....shelled pistachios, dry
roasted planters, and slivered almonds....

thoroughly enjoyable and probably my biggest carb culprit....but, I
keep on 'showing' and not gaining weight, and, to me, that is what is
important.

Unfortunately, I do not seem to fill up on them....
