Hi guys, 

I been searching the shops for some porridge oats that I can eat, really miss this for breakfast especially in my breakfast smoothie. 

I can't find any which are under 5g, any one else found any please? 

Thanks 😉

      Amazing, thanks my love. I checked all tescos, morrisons and sainsbury, nothing. Trust it to be the one I left out lol 

      Really miss them as they make the smoothie really filling. I been so hungry this last week, think it's due to pmt, always seem to be  PAC man the week before I'm due. Even the scales show a 2lb gain but not let that put me off. Xx

      Hi hun

      Can I just run this past you, I think I know the answer but don't want an oil train looool 

      I normally takes supplements as I suffer bad with fatigue. I take udos  choice, beyond greens. It's jammed packed with good stuff. The fat content is 8g per 100g but one teaspoon is 0.4g which is 5g 

      So do you think it be ok to have one dessert spoon? Xx

      Hi Collette i personally wouldn't but it's totally up to you. Isn't that the one you were taking before when you got the oil before? or was that another powder? x

    @Collette no problem. lol i'm the same it's like you can never fill yourself! They are as far as i know the lowest fat ones around. Don't worry about the 2lb it's all water weight x

      Sorry, should have been clearer lol. I make a smoothie that's a feast to eat lol 

      Lots of fruit, either milk, yogurt, veg and now I've found porridge oats I can add them. 

      It's such a feast and I don't get hungry till near on 12noon. Good way of getting your 5 a day in and nutrients.  Breaks the routine up of having the same thing every day. 

      This morning I had, apple, strawberries, grapes, blueberries, apple juice, banana, porridge oats and wheatgrass. I'm just eating lunch now. X .
