Cut down: Cut down on the amount of nuts and seeds you eat. They have healthy fats but like anything, too much is bad (contrary to american culture). Get a handful and put it in a bowl - that's all you get for the whole day. That way you can cut your quantity. Also, need to eat healthy during meals and exercise. Good fats are still fats - too much energy will cause you to pack on the pounds and padding.

Nuts & seeds are…: High in fats, but they are beneficial fats. The quantity of them you consume may be a factor since all fats = 9 calories/gram. If you're eating them in a party mix or honey-glazed or chocolate-covered mix, they add carb/sugar calories. If they're highly salted, u may consume more fluids; water is fine, but sugared beverages are still more calories. So enjoy the nuts/seeds in moderation; avoid suga.
