For some odd reason I have this strange emotional connection to a bowl of porridge...I almost always have a bowl for breakfast, if I don't I'll need one at night, or sometimes I'll just have a light snack for tea and have a bowl anyway.
I've resisted almost all of my cravings...I haven't eaten pizza in over 2 years, I haven't had a pastry or proper slice of cake in a year, I never buy sweets or chocolates, but when I crave oats, which I often do, I can't seem to resist. I've tried removing it from the house, but it would take a sea of lava to stop me going to the shops and getting more.
Family members tell me "it's just oats" and is "nothing to worry about", but I feel so restricted eating so much porridge rather than other things that I can't fit into my diet. If I didn't work out, I would probably be obese from consuming too many oats.
I don't know if anyone else has experienced this issue with oats or any similar food, but it is driving me nuts and I would appreciate any advice.
Oats brother?
I've been eating oats literally every day for the past 5 years (since I started lifting)
sometimes it's just 100g (dry weight) per day when I decide to eat rice or something for carbs in my main meal, sometimes it's like 300g. probably 1kg a week on average
I think I can honestly admit I can't imagine a life without oats at this point
sometimes I think about it and find it funny that I'm literally made out of oats

now that I think about it's like 2kg a week, my bad
btw as a sedentary manlet I have a TDEE of 2000
I almost exclusively eat 60g oats, banana, blueberries, chocolate milk every morning

Porridge is an all around perfect meal, especially if you mix fruit in with it. I normally have a bowl with chopped up bananas/blueberries and peanut butter for breakfest

Clearly not a CHAD, no amount of OATS will compensate your apparent lack of HEIGHT, FACE and FRAME
Porridge is super healthy. Beta-Glucan and fibers.

Damn oats are good. But yeah your family's right, there are a lot worse things to be addicted to. Try cutting stuff out of your oats, see if you can eat just oats and water or something. Oats are great for you though. I do targeted keto and when I'm loading carbs I go to oats. Maybe put pictures of fatties or gore on your oats the ways some countries put pics of black lungs on cigarettes.

Breh I have had oats with berries every single morning since my freshman year of college (2010).
There are worse addictions.

Unless oats become a serious health risk to you I would disrecommend putting pictures of gore or egging on your dysmorphia with imagery...
