    iv been eating the ready brek porridge sachets 30g but they don't fill me up for very long, so I am going to get the bag of oats but not sure how much to use. What do you think?

    ALOT!!

    Breakfast cereals/oats don't fill me up at all unless i eat like 5 servings with milk. For me it's just not worth the calories :cry:

    Agree. I was completely amazed when I started actually measuring and logging calories, and saw what a "serving" really was. My bowls were loaded, and that's what I thought was normal :/

    I make mine in the slow cooker, 1 cup of oats makes enough for about 4-5 servings. I make it ahead and then warm it in the microwave, heats up just fine!

    You can eat 4-5 times off one cup of oats?! That's not a whole lot of food.

    1 cup raw steel cut oats is four cups cooked. I do this same thing and eat it over four days.
