Oatmeal just doesn't seem to have this effect on me. I eat a bowl about 7am and by 10am i am feeling hungry again. And not "bored hungry" but actual "stomach grumbling" hungry

Edit: my first "holy shit my inbox!" My highest rated comment is about what a greedy git i am

I mean i guess but toast, fruit and cereal last about the same so it doesn't seem to be a benefit of oatmeal as such

Edit: lots of comments on calorie comparison and tbh i don't know as i am not calorie counting so can only judge off what i generally prepare. As an example i make 40g oatmeal with 250ish ml of semi skinned milk and add a teaspoon of manuka honey and some flaxseed.

Toast = 2 pieces of wholemeal bread with manuka honey

Fruit = banana, handful of blueberries and goji berries and a third of a pot of plain yogurt

Cereal = i admit i eat way too much when i eat it so probabaly at least 2 standard portions of normally muesli or similar

I am always hungry by 10am regardless

Double edit: to all the egg/avocado suggestions. I love eggs and avocado but i just don't have time in the morning. I'm already getting up at 6am and don't fancy getting up any earlier as i have chronic pain

I am one of those women unfortunately. Similar to you it started 5 years ago as suspected thrush or infection. 3 types of medication, numbing creams, dilators, PT and a vestibulectomy i can still barely sit down and each day is a living hell. Thank you for raising awareness of such a life draining condition

Jeez there has got to be some sort of rules against that type of negligence
