Oatmeal for breakfast just ain't cutting it !

[muchachomalo]

Don't get me wrong I love what oatmeal stands for, but I'm shooting for 75g of complex carbs/low sugar + 60g of protein for breakfast, and with oatmeal that equates to a big ass bowl !

It literally takes me about 45-60 min to put down that much oatmeal.

Any one have other sugestions on something that doesn't leave you so freakin stuffed ???

Yea, use less oatmeal and get the extra carbs from somewhere else. ex: honey on oatmeal or put fruit in your oatmeal.

i put honey and i drink mine. i cover it with hot water until is swishes around in the bowl, pour it in a cup and take a big sip then put some water from the sink in the cup so its runny again and sip, repeat until gone.

 

[Mrbigz]

put apple sauce in it, or rice puddn. mmm mmm! deee-lish!

I put honey and some cinnamon on my oatmeal, maybe I will add some protien powder to it as well. They make one oatmeal that has rye barley oats and wheat in it thats my favorite one to get but I dont always go to Publix which has it, walmart (the corporation leading us under Chinese rule lol) doesnt have it

I might have to try this. I just cannot get myself to eat oatmeal. I keep trying it, all the different flavors, but I just cannot get it down.

How many packs can you get down this way, Metal?

I dont do the packs I get the cannisters, but it would be the equivalent to 3-4 packs

If I may jump in here.

I find myself at times here and there choking just trying to get the oats down, like the OP stated, he loves what the oats stand for, and I too. A staple in my daily AM food intake.

I do a few things here and these seem to have really made a huge impact on my intake and volume of consumption, with-out losing.

1st)
I blend my oats into a fine pure powder, and add to my shakes, or just make my own shake and add blue-berries, straws, banana ext. You can get creative and really doll up your shake as we all know this. The blended powder that I make, I am able to chug it down and even add more, with less bloat and full feeling, and still be able to add some other stuff, like a grapefruit or eggs.

2nd)
I use the oatmeal packets on the go, I open them, dump in mouth, then wash down with water. It's fast, simple and not as harsh as it sounds. No prep, cooking, or time wasted. I even do so on the drive to/from work sites.

I hope this helps.

I'm glad I was able to add to some of the great ideas here.
The blending to a fine powder is great, and you can even bring it anywhere you go and mix away, can be a bit grainy,but a lil shake'a Roony and your golden.

My 2nd option, is a bit comical. An other member here seen me do it the other day at work, and he almost puked just watching me, till I forced him to try it, and he agreed that it's not half bad once you get past the gag reflex. :thumbsup:

He's a big boy so no pencil neck, more like brick neck. lol

I made him laugh tho, told him that's its all how you open your mouth,loosen the throat muscles, and wrap the lips on the package. He took it like a champ I must say!
