Snacking - Can't Quit Peanuts

So when i eat, I fill up really quickly.  We all do, I know.  I can get about 3 regular sized shrimp down and be quite full.  But when I snack on peanuts, I throw down.  They dont fill me up at all, and I love them so much.  I find myself popping several at a time quite frequently.  I like them becuase they have the protein, but they have a good amount of fat as well.  Anyone else have this problem, I can throw down a half cup of peanuts and not be full.  Anyone know of another salty high protein snack I can munch on that would be better for me? 

Sadly, munching is probably not such a good idea.  If you really crave the peanuts, measure out servings in individual baggies or containers and allow yourself one or two a day.  Also, salt retains fluids, so it probably isn't that good either.  I know the salty snack craving for myself, and I have had to put a stop to all of it for a while.

good luck.

When I have peanuts, I measure out 1/4 cup and put the rest away. I chew one peanut at a time and swallow it. Mindful eating is the key.

Salt is not a good option. Stick to the peanuts but eat them slowly.

I don't do peanuts, but I love the salt & vinegar almonds.  But what I do is put one almond in my mouth and first suck off all the flavoring.  Then I roll it around in my mouth until I can easily peel off the skin.  Then I scrape it againt my teeth to make a crude almond butter.  Then I swallow.  It can take me 2-3 minutes to eat one almond.  But it keeps my mouth happy without distressing my pouch or my calorie count.
