My acup. always gets me when I don't drink enough water :(.<br />A little tip for "quick" made-from-scratch oatmeal: you can soak the oats overnight with a tbsp of some acid medium (like yogurt or whey), and water. They cook in about 3 minutes, so it's very quick!<br />So basically-<br />1/2 cup oats, soaked in 1/2 cup warm water, 1 tbsp yogurt or whey<br />bring 1/2 cup water with a dash of sea salt to boil, add soaked oats and cook for 3-4 minutes.<br />Easy peasy :). Before starting my new diet, I used to eat oatmeal almost every morning with a little maple syrup or a dollop of cream. Yum!<br />Glad to hear the total cost of the cycle is cheaper than you thought it would be!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4265503242081752766.post-56967962502155444852010-03-11T16:00:26.460-05:002010-03-11T16:00:26.460-05:00LOL at the pop tart incident!!
