    Well, are you within your calories? Are you hungry later? If you're within your calories and don't get hungry later, there's nothing wrong with that many carbs.

    Depending on the bread and the oatmeal, they could be exactly the same in terms of protein and fiber. Your bread in the link might be the better choice AND you prefer it to oatmeal and you have other options for the oatmeal. I would eat the bread. Eat things that you like.

    Then I wouldn't even worry about it, as long as your protein is high enough.
