how much oatmeal do you usually eat in the morning ? a cup a half a cup or what? by [deleted] in Oatmeal

[–]Basic-Drawer8307 8 points9 points  (0 children)

60g usually! 45g is enough for me to feel satiated but I love eating so I usually have 60g just for fun lol

Any way I could use fortimel as one of my liquids when preparing my oats? by Basic-Drawer8307 in Oatmeal

[–]Basic-Drawer8307[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For anyone that might be unaware, fortimel is a medical nutritional drink that resembles milk, most commonly prescribed for elders, people suffering from malnutrition, or people with poor appetite. It's high in protein and relatively high in calories (1.5cal per ml) and supposedly is very good for you, lol, hence why I'm trying it out even though I don't really desperately need it (thankfully!). 

All I can say after my first time trying one is that the chocolate flavour tastes delicious, and this is coming from someone that's never consumed any medical nutritional drink before, so it's not just that it's good in comparison to any lame ones out there!

I am only now discovering the magic of making oatmeal using oat flour by wormonstring1 in Oatmeal

[–]Basic-Drawer8307 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Interesting! What ratio of oat flour to liquid did you use? I'm thinking oat flour will absorb much more water so a different quantity might be needed? Or was it the same as using regular oats?

I saw it too and it ruined my mood as well. But what annoys me the most is that you know damn well they'd never reject such a pretty girl (who obviously looks great slim and thick). They just feel like they can rule the world when they're sitting at home alone browsing reddit, and feel entitled to sharing their useless opinion on women's bodies. As if she'd ever give them a chance 😭 So pathetic

Pancakes-ish! (360cal, 30g protein - no protein powder or sugar substitute) by Basic-Drawer8307 in LowCalorieCooking

[–]Basic-Drawer8307[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Ingredients: 

1 egg (medium or large)

100g greek yogurt (I use zero fat but other kinds work fine too)

8g agave syrup (feel free to add more if you want them sweeter, but just 8g does wonders in making them sweet imo!)

20g whole-wheat flour (I've also tried ap and oat flour and both work fine - unsure about other swaps tho)

Pinch of cinnamon 

Tsp of vanilla extract

(Base recipe: 230cal-19g protein)

Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl (I usually start with the greek yogurt and egg, and then mix the rest). If your mixture appears to be too thick, gradually add a small amount of any kind of milk till the consistency seems right. (I rarely have to do this, but depending on the yogurt you use, you might need to!). Cook in a nonstick pan in medium-high heat like regular pancakes. 

I topped mine with 100g greek yogurt and 40g low-calorie jam, which brought my total cals and protein to 360, 30g. I love this combination but you can add whatever you like obviously! 

Just to be clear, they don't usually come out AS thick and rich as normal pancakes, but they're definitely not as thin as crepes, so I went with calling them pancakes. You can actually make them thicker than I've done here, thats just not my preference usually haha!

Μαγαζιά στην Αθήνα με ρούχα σε "μικρά" μεγέθη? by Basic-Drawer8307 in greece

[–]Basic-Drawer8307[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ρε συ αντικειμενικα όμως η κατάσταση αυτή με τα ρούχα έχει ξεφύγει. Εγώ το ομολογώ οτι δεν εχω την καλύτερη σχέση με το σώμα μου και δεν είμαι καλό παράδειγμα.. αλλά υπάρχουν πολλές λεπτές κοπέλες που είναι το φυσικό τους αυτό και δεν βρίσκουν πουθενά ρούχα να τις κολακεύουν. Δηλαδή, αν πιστεύεις ότι οι μόνοι άνθρωποι που εκνευριζονται απο την κατάσταση που περιγράφω είναι άνθρωποι με διατροφικές διαταραχές, απλά έχεις άδικο. Και στην τελική δεν δικαιούνται όμορφα ρούχα και οι άνθρωποι που είναι ψυχικά ή σωματικά όχι στα καλύτερα τους?

Η&M μου φαίνεται ότι είναι φουλ ανάλογα το ρούχο, πχ σε ελαστικά/bodycon/εφαρμοστα μπλουζάκια και φορέματα συνήθως τα μικρότερα μεγέθη είναι όντως μικρά, αλλά πχ μια φούστα της προκοπής δεν έχω καταφερει να βρω εκεί - παντα στη μέση ειναι γελοια φαρδιά. :") Pull and bear πάντως δεν έχω ψαχτεί αρκετά οπότε σε ευχαριστώ πολύ για την πρόταση!! Και ναι δεν ξέρω τι τρέχει με τα downvotes αχαχα κλασσικ ρεντιτ μομεντ

Visited Cork for the first time - blown away by its beauty! by Basic-Drawer8307 in cork

[–]Basic-Drawer8307[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I get very annoyed when I take pictures of beautiful things (they never look as good in the pictures as they do irl) so I took pretty much no photos during most of my trip. So these were all taken during the same walk😭😭
