Oatmeal A good carb after a workout?

You are correct! Note: the difference in GI will not be huge, but grinding/blending your oats up does raise the GI slightly.

Yeah I did some more reading on the subject. This is why whole grains are typically low GI foods (like whole grain bread), while white bread (wheat flour grinded very finely) is a high GI food. So the more you break up the grain, the easier it seems to be for your body to digest it, thus raising the GI value of the food.
