ok ok.. we now have clarity on how much cereal, grains, oats for breakfast fits into our 4 week intensive and the rest of our lives if we want to get and stay lean.
Kat and I went out on the road last week and presented a 2hr nutrition workshop with a food demonstration to a group of accountants (exciting stuff)! Kat made up a bunch of snack and some breakfasts which included oats.
I was amazed to understand that Kat recommends ONLY 30-50 grams MAXIMUM or cereal, oats or grains for breakfast. "I'll starve", I hear you say. This minimum amount of grains is meant as a sprinkle over your 1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese, handful of berries and 3 almonds.
It was made very clear to me that a bowl of cereal is no good for people who want to be lean and stay lean.

I HIGHLY recommend that you keep the oats for porradge to a 30-45g portion uncooked, and the cereal/muslie to 30-50g depending on what you eat with it! If you have the goodness of blueberries with the breaky or other berries wich is exellent choices of carbs a 15-20g serve of cereal or muslie is enough just to get a crunchy flavour!
