Oatmeal Recipe Round-Up
Written on February 2, 2010 – 5:07 pm | by Russ Turley
Consistently our logs show that you, listener and reader, are looking for the oatmeal recipes that we talk about on the podcast or post in the show notes. In fact, 33% of the searches that are done on Fat2FitRadio.com are for oatmeal.
To make your search easier, below is a round up of all the oatmeal recipes and shows we mentioned them on.
- On show #81 the recipe of the week was Super Oatmeal. The link includes a video of an Olympic trainer showing you how to make the oatmeal using basically a hot plate.
- Listener Anna sent us a recipe for show #69 that she called Healthy Chocolate Blueberry Oatmeal. It’s pretty similar to the Super Oatmeal.
- Show #55 about Crossfit also brought a recipe for Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies from listener Paxye. This one is a downloadable PDF.
- Questions and Answers happened on show #52 we linked to Tom Venuto’s Oatmeal Pancakes that Jeff is a fan of.
- When we talked about Cooking for Weight loss on show #46, it was an oatmeal packed show including links for another version of Oatmeal Pancakes and a video of someone making them. Unfortunately both of those links are dead or private. That’s unfortunate, but take a listen to the show and find out what was said about them.
- We discussed a bunch of comments about oatmeal way back on show #26.
- And finally, the post that started it all, Jeff’s post titled “How to Cook Oatmeal in Advance“. Jeff prepares his oatmeal and then freezes it in single servings so it’s easy to eat and he has no excuses for not starting his day off with a great breakfast. You’ll also learn how to make fried slices of oatmeal and how to create your own instant oatmeal thanks to listener contributions.

In the days after the new year, Jeff was inspired by the shows “Half Ton Teen”, “Half Ton Mom”, and of course “Half Ton Dad” to talk about fat enablers. It’s all about the people who help you to be fat, and the people who you help to be fat as well. An enabler can’t make you eat if you don’t want to, but they can sure make it easier to do it. See if you fit into this category.
Pregnancy is one of the times in a woman’s life that gaining weight is not only encouraged, it’s required. But, how much weight should a woman gain during pregnancy? How much is too much and what are the complications that can accompany that extra weight? In the Feature we go over the major complications you, as an expectant mother, should be aware of.
For over two years, we’ve been producing Fat 2 Fit Radio and for that time we’ve been never changing on our dislike for the 1000-1200 calorie diets that are so prevalent today. Unless you weight 100 pounds there is no way on Earth that is the amount of calories that you should eat in a day. It is far too little. The feature is about eating more to weigh less. Here’s a portion of the email that spurred Jeff to create this week’s feature, “When you are obese, how do you justify to yourself and others (i.e. disbelieving husband) that I should eat what seems like a huge amount more?”
In today’s world where we pop a pill for this, take some medicine for that, we are introduced to all sorts of side effects. How about this side effect…weight gain. Today, in the Feature Section, Jeff has a report on medications that could be making you fat. The good news is that if you are saddled with taking these medications, you don’t have to gain weight.
Kevin, over at the
