    Maybe he does..They are lower GI so maybe he uses them for his carbs intake along with other things like sweet potatoes.

    Do you have any idea just how low 200 grams of oats are?

    I've had more than 200 grams oats in one sitting also ( what can i say? I like oats )

    The bag of oats i have here indicates that a cup is about 80 gr net weight.. w/ 50 grams carbs

    .. i have a cup of oats with each meal.. That puts me at about 500 grams of oats daily.

    So no i don't think he's talking bullshit

    Since you guys use oats as your main carb source like I do. Does it really matter if I use eggs as my main protein source besides Natural PB, PWO whey and cottage cheese?

    Natty PB has some protein but its not an optimal protein source. Get protein from fish, chicken, beef, cottage cheese, whey, eggs etc.
    Eggs would be fine, sure.

    I eat about 4 cups per day. I'd eat 8-9 but my stomach would be in never-ending knots!
