Wow! Well, being that I stopped eating them and started back losing.....I think I will continue to not eat them at least until I hit my goal weigh.....which is about another 30ish lbs. I might try watermelon....its really nothing more than water anyway. I also found this article on watermelon seeds. I think I will start roasting the seeds for sure!

Watermelon seeds are excellent sources of protein (both essential and non-essential amino acids) and oil. Watermelon seed is about 35% protein, 50% oil, and 5% dietary fiber. Watermelon seed is also rich in micro- and macro-nutrients such as magnesium, calcium, potassium, iron, phosphorous, zinc etc.
