Does anyone know anything about eating instant Quaker flavored oatmeal? I eat the low sugar one. It has a lot of sodium and I am trying to lower my sodium intake. How does it compare to the regular oatmeal? Any thoughts?
This is a staple for me. It's basically the main source for my PWO carbs. It also has one of the highest protein contents for readily available oatmeal and it's easy to toss into my magic bullet with a couple scoops of protein powder.I do know Quaker Oats makes a "weight loss" formula in 3 flavors, banana nut bread, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Each serving contains 27g of carbs and only 1g of sugar, as well as 0 fat, and it tastes great. Unflavored tastes like grass to me.
lol.....If you're in this forum, it is best to avoid the instant oatmeals. Even if they are of the low sugar variety, they impact blood sugar adversly. Go with Old Fashioned (good) or steel cut (best).
This man speaks the truth!That banana bread "weight control" is ****ing delicious.

OH NO! Instant oaaaaats.
It really is not that big of a deal. Seriously.
Maybe if you are eating JUST that(and even then, it is likely negligible in the variety you are refering to), but as part of a meal, don't even worry about it.
That banana bread "weight control" is ****ing delicious.
You better at least throw up a pic now CHAMP..lolTwo VERY good examples of dialing in and not dialing in your diet. I can see my abs....distinctly. I jest, of course.
You're amusing....and I jest again, of course.You better at least throw up a pic now CHAMP..lol
My diet is VERY dialed in. I just don't stress about such trivial **** as that.
Do you not comprehend that as part of a whole meal GI is a ****ing useless tool, and the difference in BS is going to be negligible at best in the context we are talking about here.
If you enjoy your steel cut oats, by all means EAT THEM, that isn't my point. My point is there is no need to get all worked up over instant oats such as "weight control" oatmeal vs "steel cut" oats when the difference is going to be so damn trivial it isn't even funny. Eat what you enjoy.
It is 2011 not 1975, get with the program.
Add a banana, pb, cinnamon and some ground flax and it's going down!!! Oh yeah and don't forget the honey!!!<img src="http://anabolicminds.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=47019"/>

Lol, I just had to get in on this one.....Lol. but your blood sugar brah!
I have nothing to prove to you. My input was for the benefit of the OP. I am in single digit BF percentile and I train competitive athletes and have for a long time. This is a place for sharing, I have done so. If it was at your expense, that is how you are free to take it. Again, I don't give a rat's backside what else you have to say. I am not here to swell my E-ego, just to help. I suggest you do so likewise.Post your pic, or move on. If you are going to make some arrogant comment that some how would mean your diet is so dialed in and your knowledge is superior, based on your sickly detailed abs, while also making the assumption/suggestion i'm some fatty, at least back it up.
I guess Layne Norton or anyone else that would agree with what I am saying is far inferior to your vast knowledge of oat digestion right?
Exactly what I thought...I have nothing to prove to you. My input was for the benefit of the OP. I am in single digit BF percentile and I train competitive athletes and have for a long time.

just eat raw steel cut oats man! big bag of quaker is pritty cheap. tome its the same ****.Does anyone know anything about eating instant Quaker flavored oatmeal? I eat the low sugar one. It has a lot of sodium and I am trying to lower my sodium intake. How does it compare to the regular oatmeal? Any thoughts?
i just add soem bloaling water ina bowl with it let it site for 5-10min while i make my coffee/capuccino and then there GTG thow in a sliced banana or soem cinnimon.Texture, only downside is they take long to cook, but worth it if you have the tine in the morning
And that is exactly my point. Eat what you ****ing like, and stop stressing over such minuscule details..lolWhy are people raging over oatmeal, seriously lol XD. If you eat plain oats and it works for you, thumbs up. You choose the instant kind (weight control per say) and it works for you, thumbs up. I eat both, but banana nut bread flavored instant Quaker oats tastes fkn great!
Hilarious quote.......for a weight loss forum.And that is exactly my point. Eat what you ****ing like, and stop stressing over such minuscule details..lol
Because in the context of what we are taking about it makes no damn difference, and I can't make that clearer.lolHilarious quote.......for a weight loss forum.
Let me guess he too pales in comparison to your vast knowledge, and god like physique.No, there is no reason one can't have white rice, white bread, or the like when trying to lose fat. Most people are so concerned about the glycemic index of these foods that they don't realize the glycemic index is only measured when a carb source is eaten by itself. If you combine the carb source with a protein, fat, and fiber found in a complete meal, the glycemic index is essentially blunted and washed out by the other foods.
