I felt the same way about oats. Too many carbs.

How much longer for your lab tests? I had mine done a week or two ago but my doctor didnt check cholesterol. I think he does it no more than once a year unless he's worried about it. My labs were fine except for CRP (C Reactive Protein) which was over 10 like it always is.

YOH oatmeal isn’t an experiment. You either accept all the health benefits or you don’t. It may slow down digestion of all foods which aids in your bodies ability to absorb all the nutrition from your food intake, It may cause your body to hold onto water which isn’t a bad thing because water is essential to our health. Yes the bathroom scale may tick up but that isn’t always bad for our health.

I only eat oatmeal on workout days - so only 3 x a week and sometimes not that. I am not eating it for my cholesterol though but only because I like to make overnight oats with protein in them on the mornings I have strength training in the afternoon. I get 15 grams of protein and only 6 net grams of carbs so totally doable daily if I wanted to.

As a p.s. I am 64 and oatmeal was always a big yuck for me up until a few years ago when I accepted that some things I need to eat are good for my health and sustaining a healthy weight. So I jazz it up about 4 mornings a week and choke it down lol. What prompted you to add it into your daily meal plan ?

I have been adding the premade protein shakes to my oatmeal after it's cooked. I find it adds flavor and a bit of protein. I usually add 1/4 cup to a half cup oatmeal. Make your oatmeal thick so it won't be too runny when you add protein shake.

Honee i actually DO like oatmeal just dont like the carbs. My doc wants me on statins STAT (lil joke but still true). She called in a prescription i have not chosen to pick up. I want to see what will happen to my LDL and total cholesterol with purposeful addition of fiber and benefits on cholesterol oatmeal may provide. Im currently over the top weight i have mentally said i would find acceptable (135-138) and actually hit 140.4 for one day. Because i am maintaining on 1200-1300 calories a day there is not a lot of extra room for moving the macros around. I need more MUSCLES so i can eat more😂

Fritzy i think 3 months or so. I get them 3x a year. I used to get them 4x/yr but they improved so much. So i am one month into the oatmeal experiment and think will be a good indicator if i literally have no more control over the continually rising LDL. I do understand it is genetic i am just so afraid of statins.

Diana i use 1/2 banana 1/2 scoop Orgain protein powder 1 tsp honey and a little bit of i cant believe it’s not butter spray. I like it that way. I wouldn’t like it runny or soupy i like it thick and paste like. Not trying to wish time away but im so curious as to whether this will impact my labs or have no effect at all.

I understand your concern. I went on statins in 2018 and had to come off them for all the same reasons you are concerned about going on them now. As my weight normalized my body could not tolerate them any longer. Because my intolerance grew over time it wasn’t easily evident or quickly associated to statins. My lipids have normalized and I have been off statins for about 10 months. But I want my ldl lower and next labs are in April.

Year of Health, can you sub bananas for something else? Bananas are not carb friendly. Maybe berries? I like cinnamon on mine.

@YOH the only reason I suggest them is that I think they will have similar benefits as oatmeal in terms of soluble fiber but they have a lot of protein, too! They can help you meet all the goals without having to compromise your macros 💪

Like Diana, I was going to suggest berries. I don't eat oatmeal often, but when I do, I put blueberries in it. Heat the oatmeal after the blueberries are added til they burst....so flavorful!
