gagging on oatmeal

okay so I fell off the weight loss wagon for a bit but I'm definitely back on track again for the time being. this weight loss thing is definitely not an over nighter. things happen and i forget to take care of myself. besides it's really hard to find healthy food to like. i am starting to learn and finding new foods to like though. i found out that fresh soybeans are good snack versus peanuts or popcorn. I like to be artistically creative so why can't I be food creative too. i'm just not that good in that department. Cooking or any thing dealing with food is my weakness. much rather just pop it in the mircowave and call it a meal.

one thing that has grown on me since changing my eating habits is some good hot oatmeal...yummy. of course for me the creamier the better. i add more water in my bowl than there is oatmeal. it takes me forever to eat, which is kind of good in a way because you are suppose to eat slow anyways, right? the weird part of this is that i know when i'm done is when i start gagging from eating the oatmeal, usually when i'm near the bottom and most of the water is soaked up into the oatmeal making it too thick. picture the faces of those contestants on the show survivor who eat big nasty bugs and cow organs, i have the same reaction just from eating oatmeal. so eating oatmeal in the morning for breakfast has become quite an experience or chore, however you look at it. I'm thinking to maybe switching to cold cereal.
