I have gotten into the habit of spreading butter on wheat bread and eating it when I get hungry. I am afraid I will start putting on the pounds again if I dont stop it.

ALSO I SOMETIMES ADD A LITTLE SHREDDED CHEESE AS WELL AND ADD A SLICED TOMATO AND ONION AND MAKE A SANDWICH.
IS THIS REALLY FATTENING?

Yes it is fattening. Butter is over 80% saturated fat!!!
On the other hand, at least it's a natural product unlike margarine which to be frank, is just a load of chemicals and vegetable fat - yuk.

Unfortunately, butter has a whopping 100 calories per tablespoon so if you are spreading lots of it on pieces of bread several times a day, those calories will add up fast and cause weight gain if you are not exercising to burn them off.

A tablespoon of butter is 100 calories. That is fairly concentrated calories in a pretty small space.

yes it has got alot of fat in it, and a hell of alot of calories. Your weight probably will start to creep up if you eat alot of bread and butter

Keep the butter nice and thin and you'll be fine.
