Hi! Does anybody know if ProtiDiet oatmeal is restricted or non restricted? It's 90 cal, 6 carbs, 0 sugar and 15 protein.

I sure hope not. It's pretty low in calories and carbs

The IP oatmeal is on restricted list, that's why I'm not sure...

The IP oatmeal is 150 cals, 12 carbs,0 sugar and 18 protein.

When I have used alternatives in the past, I use this as my rule of thumb: Under 10 carbs- unrestricted, Over 10 carbs- restricted

I doubt that is the official way, and I am sure calories and fat are really important too, but that was just my personal way to quickly categorize.

Yep thats what I do too. I use that oatmeal every other day and I am just fine

Nikkib, when you use oatmeal you also have a restricted food that day? A bar or some other item from restricted list?

[Porthardygurl]

No its not restricted!

Your all good! I use it almost every day.

No. I do not use restricted items at all. I don't feel I need them either. If I want something sweet I will have the health smart hot chocolate (made with sucralose) as my snack. I had a restricted one time and knew it was not a good idea for me. It makes my cravings all crazy. I am better off staying away from them.
