I look more rad than Lutheranism

I checked the nutritionally info on the McD's oatmeal. Not great when it's loaded--it's heavy on the carbs

Um...oatmeal is a carb. I would expect it to be heavy on carbs.

I'm not trying to be contentious, and I have no special love for McDonald's, but I am confused by the discourse that labels it not healthy.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

but I am confused by the discourse that labels it not healthy.

I actually am as well. Granted, it's got more sugar (in the fruit) and fat than *I* add to my oatmeal at home but that's because when I eat it at home it's austere fuel full of fiber and I don't care to make it otherwise. Also I think sweetened dried cranberries are gross, so I don't add them. But it's a fairly healthy breakfast, honestly.

Because books.

Not all healthy food is low in calories, is the thing. It's in how you use them, and what else you're eating.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I think it's just because it's twice the service I'm used to. When I was on the GD diet, I could only have 45 carbs per meal, so that would leave this out for me. Even with their cream, it's still only 4.5g of fat, which is pretty good. I think it has more nutritional bang for the calorie buck than most of what's on McD's menu so I won't quibble.

I'm putting some steel cut oats in the slow cooker tonight, though. I have no cherries (not even frozen) but I do have fresh blueberries.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Exactly. I think the quibble over McD's oatmeal is a result of equating "low calorie" with "healthy".

Why, that's why those 80 calorie soup meals are the most healthy things you can eat, right?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

3 more hours in the yard. so much tired, it is actually eating me. I will sleep very well tonight. Sadly in those 3 hours, all I cleared for the flower bed was an area 2' x 6'. Reclaiming space from lawn by hand is hard and slow.

OMG, rookie error. I painted my nails without peeing before.
