I would think cream of wheat would be better

I put the dried oat in the food processor and then turned it into a thin oatmeal.

What about grits? However, I know cream of wheat is about the same just smaller.

I still havent tried oatmeal yet. I have been really focused on Proteins and want to make sure I use the calories I have to eat the foods I need.

Oats are generally fine just make them runnier than usual. Weetbix made with hot Water works well too.

Oatmeal is on my list for mushies...I would blend up the oats like mentioned above and thin it out with milk. That will be my plan anyway.

At the beginning I made all the hot cereals kind of runny and added a scoop of the unflavored Protein Powder. I love grits but oatmeal and cream of wheat is fine too.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
