Re: Oatmeal question....
If you're trying to lose and/or maintain a certain weight, I think as long as you factor it in to the rest of your calorie intake for the day, it's fine. - Or, you can add some fresh fruit to your breakfast in place of the additional oatmeal -
Better to fill up with a breakfast that will keep you til lunch then to be starving and grabbing junk food all morning !!

Re: Oatmeal question....
I agree I think it is fine. On WW two packages of apple and cinnamon oatmeal made with water is only 4 points. And I don't think I have ever heard anyone gaining weight by over eating oatmeal.

Re: Oatmeal question....
Go for it! I do, one just does not do it for me. On WW 2 packes usually equal 5 pts depending on the flavor.

Re: Oatmeal question....
I was in the same boat.. I felt guilty eating two packets. So I bought the caniser (or huge box at BJs) and do an in-between. Exactly enough oatmeal to measure out about 200 calories.
I dont buy the flavored oatmeal because of all the sugar. I get plain and sprinkle a little brown sugar on it.

Re: Oatmeal question....
I used to feel the same way w/ only one package so i started adding some blueberries or strawberries and maybe a small handful of walnuts and that REALLY helps

You could add a fruit to the oatmeal for 1 pt and that will probably be just as filling as having 2 packets.
