steel cut oatmeal? bad idea to eat every day?



Recommended Posts

I been finding myself eating oatmeal every morning, Just wondering if the carbs are to much in this and should I cut down on it. I usually make it with bananas , apples or blueberries.

Thanks in advance!

I think it's just a matter of individual diet. As far as carbs go, they say the steel cut oatmeal is very good for you.

I love and miss my steel cut oatmeal days. For we banders it's a slider food and doesn't give us the satiety we need. Lots of Fiber and a low glycemic value so it should be fine for sleevers and bypass folks.

Lots of carbs in 1/4 cup according to my fitness pal. It also only has 6 grams of carbs. The fruit will give you Fiber also. I don't think eating something everyday is a good idea simply because variety in your diet will keep you from getting bored in what your eating. Why don't you try to add a scoop of unflavored Protein like Unjury or something like that with your oatmeal. I will keep you satisfied longer than just eating oatmeal and you will really bump up your protein intake from 6 grams to 27 by just adding the protein. Remember being a bariatric patient is all about the protein. If you want consistent results get in your protein first. I also eat almost the same thing for Breakfast every morning. But I have a cup of almond milk and a scoop of Unjury vanilla, strawberry or unflavored protein. Its fast and I have to be at work by 7:00 am in the morning with a 30 minute drive. Good luck, Mark

Steel cut oats are one of the eating highlights of my day. Mix it with chocolate Protein Powder and...mmm...every day I love my oats in the afternoon.

I prepare the McCanns Steel Cut Oatmeal as on directions for the Quick and easy . My question is i can eat the whole thing with a handful of blueberries.

Is this to much . I have no trouble finishing it.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
