    oatmeal substitute?

    I tried as you guys with egg whites and oatmeal in the mornings, but my god the gas I get off of the combination is unbelievable! I cut back to my eggs with grapefruit again with a slice of dempsters 12 grain bread.

    Is this an OK substitute or what other options do I have?

    only problem with that is that if the oatmeal is giving him gas it could mean that his body is not digesting it properly, in which case he should use another source

    you know that is strange.
    for some people i agree it demolishes their stomach and others their fine.

    I'm a fan of steel cut oats but I have done brown rice with smartballance and cinnamon when I have left overs to eat from the previous day. It even "feels" like a breakfast if you flavor it and warm it up.

    Oh lucky you lol. Thing is lebanese kicthen includes a lot of beans, so when I carb up I'll have beans, and yeah....it's ugly at times lol. Like I wouldn't eat them before stepping into the gym, no way haha.

    But yeah, I think everybody's different.
