I'm a little confused. Are you quibbling over "limit" vs. "moderation" as
synonyms? Both mean (to eat with) "restraint." Moreover, my use of the
word "limit" is not synonymous with "eliminate" in case you were reading it
that way. It IS very possible to gain weight or not lose weight when eating
nuts without mindfulness to their calorie content. They're extremely easy
to gorge on.
