Canned peas are loaded with salt. Try cooking frozen or fresh ones.

Peas are good but like ClassicRocker said, fresh or frozen.
I prefer those easy frozen bags that are like $1-$2 that you throw in the microwave for 6 minutes.

Or at the very least rinse them. The can liners sometimes have BPA. Peas are a source of protein so they should fill you up.

Don't let that number on the scale get to you. Much of it is most likely water and temporary. You've started anew, and that's what counts... one day at a time! xoxox

If you only have canned veggies available, try rinsing them in a colander with water before you eat them.

Aim for a mix of soluble and insoluble fiber. Both are good for you. I've been using ground flaxseed and psyllium husks to add fiber to my diet. Neither have any artificial sweeteners which some fiber products have.

Some brands have "no salt added" I use the green beans and tomatoes all the time. I prefer frozen peas.

I don't care for the taste of frozen peas. You can find no sodium canned peas, but there are still a lot of calories in peas. You might want to add a fiber supplement like BeneFiber or Metamucil to your foods instead of filling up on peas. Beans are also a good source, but again, high in calories though higher in protein as well.

Sherri, I loves peas also, I love the baby peas in a can, but everyone is correct frozen is better, canned veggies have alot of additives, you eat more canned spinach with less calories- but fresh or frozen is always the best

Products like Metamucil usually have artificial sweeteners, which have been linked to a negative impact on intestinal bacteria which help regulate weight.

I need to check, but I thought peas and corn are high in natural sugar, aside from being high in sodium due to canning. Chalk it up to a learning experience, get some spinach and broccoli, and keep it moving! Minor set back, don't dwell on it!

My doctor told me no peas because they are starchy,

Use a fiber supplement. I use Now Foods Organic Acacia Fiber. It has 25 cals per Tbl. I take 1 tsp. 3x/day. You just mix it in water and drink it. It's tasteless. Hope that helps. Good luck!

Canned peas would be loaded with sodium. I thaw frozen ones and snack on them. :) They taste more garden fresh, to me.

Canned peas are yucky. That's why it's bad to eat them.

I like peas also, but there is a lot of sodium in the cans, do try buying the frozen ones, and as for water, I don't like cold water, so I have been warming it up in the microwave and drinking it like coffee, sometimes I add a lemon, and it seams to be working for me, I can get down the water no problem...

I would think that should be fine. Women should get between 20-25 grams of fiber a day, the average american gets about 12. I struggle with it daily. I try to take benefiber to help.
