I can't do it!! Help

[FighterInSnatch]

Ok , I bought some oatmeal about 2 weeks ago. I usually just mix a scoop in with my protein shake and it goes down nicely. But this morning I made a bowl of it cooked. I put alot of Sugar Free Syrup and some cinnamon in it. I made my protein shake and began eating and drinking my shake. After about the third
bite, I began feeling really sick when i would eat more of the oatmeal, like i wanted to gag and throw up. Now i can hold down some weird ass food, but this **** was killing me, so i quit eating it and finished off my shake.

DOES ANYONE KNOW ANY REALLY GOOD RECIPES FOR OATMEAL!?!?!

THanx alot everyone.

cinnamon and splenda

[Adam]

not the 'healthyist' but it does the trick for me. Instant oatmeal, maple and brown sugar flavour.

[Ritzol]

I mix my oatmeal with a banana and some peanut butter... I like it, and I HATE oatmeal..

Eventually, you will learn to like it.

Why punish yourself? You don't HAVE to eat oatmeal.

[thalakos84]

Oatmeal with some added milk, cinnamon, and sugar. I add enough milk so I can almost drink the oatmeal. Granted, I still chew the oats.

[Rik-s]

Hate the stuff, cant eat it. I'll stick with my weetabix/splenda thanks :thumbup:

[FighterInSnatch]

I guess I dont really HAVE to eat it, but I know its extremely good for you and a great pre-workout meal. Thanx for all the replies.

Try the oatmeal pancake. You can't even taste the oatmeal.

Oatmeal Pancakes-- simple, and yummmmmm.

2 cups oatmeal
2 cups milk
1 egg
1 egg white
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1 Tbsp splenda
1 cup blueberries (optional)

Mix, and cook like normal pancakes.

Oatmeal with chopped apple and cinammon.

Score^ I was just about to add that

[Mad Max]

Why not just have it as porridge, like we do in Britain. Just heat the oats with milk, and it'll make a thick consistency soup like dish. Add some honey and you're laughing. Or perhaps you need 'porridge' oats for this, I dunno'.

I tried Oatmeal and it was HORRENDOUS. I LOVE my Wheaties and Splenda....

Ok...you are gonna love this - guaranteed.
1 cup of Oatmeal
1 banana (mash it up and mix it with the oatmeal)
Add some sugar and cinnamon
2 spoons of Peanut Butter
Some cottege Cheese (Strawberry, or any other flavor will do)

Mix all the stuff together...you will love it!

I do just the oats, 1.5 cups of rolled oats, 1.5 cups milk, heat in microwave for 1:00, add sugar free syrup and cinnamon. I love it, but maybe its just me.

[Toad]

I put banana and jam with mine...

[Dirt]

I eat my oats with water. I can't imagine people having trouble eating them, as they are a neutral taste. Everyone is different obviously though...

I do it kinda like that, but I add some whey and splenda instead of the syrup and cinnamon

[1r15h]

Im guessing oatmeal is just porridge oats?
If so I love it but....
Read something in a bodybuilding article about someone mixing egg whites with it and eating etc etc so I thought it would be a good idea to mix em, that stuff was egg smelling porridge I ate 2 mouthfuls and near threw it up again still wretching at the thought...

[waynis]

suck it up! please, I don't even have cheat days. That sugar free syrup would get me puking. You can try rice milk. It has a sweet taste to it. Also put a fruits or sprinkle on some turbinado sugar.

[mrelwooddowd]

why not just keep taking the oats in your shake? I do the shake with 2 cups of milk, 2 scoops of whey, and a cup or cup and a half of oats..it's filling, and you can drink it or chew it..damn it gasses me up in a few hours though!

[FighterInSnatch]

Alright well I think I solved my problem with Oatmeal.

DO NOT MIX WATER WITH OATMEAL!
I was trying to save a few calories, but its not worth it.
I used milk instead of water and added some SF syrup and cinnamon.
It was a totally different taste and I scarffed it down :clap:

Thanx for all the replies

[EdgarMex]

There's nothing wrong with mixing it with water, that's what i use most of the time, although I must admit that it tastes better with millk
