    28grams of porridge oats is 5 syns, so you could try and work it out, cant imagine it be more than one
    I dont think that is a lot of food personally! Nowhere near the volume i manage to tuck away ;)

    Sian -I have just weighed 1tbs of oats and it was 6g.. so Lynz is right -it would be just over 1syn

    Thanks ladies, what a team we make. Not sure what my contribution is yet. I'll be this one ---> :T applauding your efforts.
    I have to say raw oats are lovely in natural yogurt so I am good with that! Can they count as a HeB? Now it is getting colder I am thinking I might look at some green days so I can start the day with cereal or porridge!

    haha fair point. would be a good idea on a Green day though, could have 1/2 HEB dried apricots then have 1 and 1/2 something else for HEB too!

    Crumbled up alpen lights are lovely on top of a muller with some fresh fruit like a chopped banana, that would be a yummy breakfast.

    28g of cereal is a ridiculous amount right? I might do 28g raw with low fat natural yogurt, otherwise that is never going to fill me up!

    I do 21g All Bran as 1/2 an HeB and have an Alpen Light for the other 1/2. There is no way i could eat 42g of All Bran for breakfast! Though i have mine with an Activia FF yog and a banana rather than milk so is a bit more filling.

    Just had an afternoon snack and am pleasantly stuffed - apple, banana, yoghurt and an alpen light:p

    Need to go and pick up DD from school soon and it is weeing it down out there:(
