    Thanks for sharing this recipe. I will be trying it out this week-- I like oatmeal, but don't love oatmeal. I DO love chocolate though, so this should greatly improve my desire to eat more oatmeal. Congrats on the weight loss and you look great!!! - 11/29/08

    I generally don't like oatmeal, but this stuff is great. I'll often add a tablespoon or two of PB2. Frozen bananas work great, too. - 1/8/12

    This was a nice change. I left out the chocolate and tried cinimon. Pretty good. Gave it an alternate taste - 12/7/08
