I have oatmeal for breakfast then i drink 16 ozs of water immediately afterwards.
Then I have no hunger for several hours afterwards. Oatmeal is good & nutritious!

    I love oatmeal, but just have a little for breakfast because I low carb. It's pretty filling and healthy though.

    Best oatmeal: Flahavan's Irish steel cut oatmeal with home made cashew milk.

    My Harris Teether sells it. It was on sale, so decided to give it a try, glad I did. It is a lot nicer than the other steel cuts, also not as cheap as others

    I've cooked steel-cut oats and find I prefer the old-fashioned rolled oats better. The steel-cut ones come out too sticky.

    My morning porridge is a combination of oatmeal and either chia or hemp seed. Sometimes cooked in water and other times milk, sometimes with an egg added, other times with a bit of peanut butter 9when chia or hemp is not used) and some fruit. Always with cinnamon. I find the added fat from either the egg, milk, or peanut butte/seeds helps the staying full time. If I eat it plain then I'm hungry before 2 hours is up.

    As for water, my 16 ounces goes down before I eat the breakfast porridge. I enjoy tea or coffee with the meal.
