E. Wynn 1 Posted February 19, 2021 What brand of oatmeal is okay to eat in this stage?? Are flavors okay?? "HELP" feeling overwhelmed with making sure I get enough food I typically shop every two weeks.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigSue 1,396 Posted February 19, 2021 Right now, you should focus on getting Protein. BariatricPal protein oatmeal is a great choice because it is lower in carbs than regular oatmeal and has added protein (you might even want to add some additional Protein Powder for more protein). I've tried the maple brown sugar and apple cinnamon and they're both good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It all tasted so bad to me. Left a weird after taste in my mouth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could only eat half a packet of the oatmeal in the pureed stage (and I actually still only eat half a packet, but now I mix in some nuts and shredded carrots).

I have NEVER heard of mixing shredded carrots into oatmeal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got the idea from Pinterest -- carrot cake oatmeal. Doesn't really taste like carrot cake, but a good way to sneak in some veggies. 😀 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
