Reply With Quotealmonds are great.
the only problem is eating just one or two servings. I usually end up eating the whole bag.

Almonds?
I just ordered some almonds to use as a bedtime snack along with a casein shake. Is this a good idea? I figured it is because almonds have higher levels of monounsatured fat, which I've read will help raise testosterone levels.

Yea. I know what you mean. I ordered a 454 gram bag, which is the equivelent of 1 lb if I remember correctly. That's a lot of nuts. I'll just have to be strong and only allow myself to eat the amount I've allotted myself to.

The serving on my bag is about 1/4 cup. This is about 20 or so. So am I using to many? This is about 17 grams of fat.

no, go with what the bag says. We were just taking a shot in the dark as far as guessing the serving size. Originally Posted by Double D

I see.....I was going to say 11 or 12 of those sure would be tough to stop at.
So 17g of fat is about right?

73/4 = 18.25g of fat per 1/4 cup serving for those of you counting at home. Originally Posted by IainDaniel

I use 1/4 cup which is about 17 according to the bag. Is this about what I should be eating? I would assume yes. i am on a cut and a good amount of fat like that before bed should be good, yes/no?
