Does anyone besides me eat oatmeal twice a day? I don't do this EVERYday, but I do have it twice a day a few days per week. I absolutely LOVE the MF oatmeal (nothing compares!) but I've been stalling for awhile now and am hoping it's not because of my precious oatmeal!

I'm wondering if anyone has lost alot of weight on MF just using the oatmeal? Is that possible?

I usually have one of everything everyday (oatmeal, shake, soup, bar, oatmeal, pudding) but am probably going to start replacing the soup and one of the oatmeals with a shake to see if that makes a difference.....but I really DON'T WANT TO GIVE UP MY OATMEAL !!! waaaahhhhhh

Someone please tell me I can have my oatmeal and eat it too!!!

I eat more than one oatmeal quite often. I love it first thing in the morning and sometimes at night before bed.

As far as I know, you could eat 5 oatmeals a day if you wanted to.

I've been known to have three Oatmeals some days and I don't think it slowed me down. It's absolutely my favorite MF meal!! I love it right before bed!

5 oatmeals is 75g of carbs so I don't see why not. The things they restrict or suggest you restrict (bars and the nutritionist suggests minestrone soup) have much higher carb counts. Having a bar and four oatmeals may be too many carbs for a person, but even then others it may be perfectly fine.

A benefit to all the oatmeal is that you'd get 20g of fiber from your supplements alone Some of the other supplements only have 2-3 g which can sometimes leave you a little low for the day.

I am always very interested in the nutritional composition of the plan, sorry if I go a little overboard. Really though the numbers work out wonderfully if you want to eat that much oatmeal

Thank you all !!!

You've all made me feel better about loving the oatmeal so much! (I'd even give up a bar for an oatmeal

I used to hate oatmeal, and when I decided I like it, I started eating it three times a day. I've cut back, but it didn't cause any problems. All the fiber was nice, and I find it more filling than some of the other products.

I have oatmeal 2 or 3 times a day. I like it more than anything else. I do, though, make it into pancakes so I can take it to work and re-heat it and dip it in some WF syrup. I would also give up the bar for the oatmeal.
