Flax Z Snax Hot Cereal

[raverminx]

Has anyone tried this? i got some from the low carb megastore 2g net carbs and mainly just flax. I dont plan on having it every day, maybe a few times a week (i suffer from terrible consterpation) so the flax will do me a world of good. Im not really on induction, i guess im just low carbing (no more than 15 carbs a day) and im losing at a slow rate which is fine as my bmi is 21 which makes me in the normal range, though i can afford to lose a bit more.

i had some today, its umm ok, edible but just lol

anyone else tried it, what do you think of it?

Hi, I was wondering whether it tastes ok as well- haven't tried it but don't want to spend money on it if it tastes gross! From what you said its edible but not exactly tasty?
I definitely want my breakfast to be something to look forward to!

Linwoods is far better....they do a cocoa and berries for 1.1 carb per serving or I normally do linwoods flax with seeds n goji berries and add a teaspoon of green n blacks coco powder and a tsp of Splenda for 3.6 carbs and it rocks!!!

Hi J, what's the consistency of the Linwoods granola like? I looked on their website just now and it looks on the packet quite fine grain? Is it like that, or is it more chunky/crunchy?

umm if you add a bit of cream and splenda then its ok, its not that bad but also not amazing!

sounds nice might have to try that

The Linwoods Flaxmeal is fine grain like ready brek but you still get little nutty bits for added consistency

I prefer to make my own Choco flax with Linwoods, Splenda and green n blacks....so much nicer than their ready made cocoa stuff!

im just wondering if having the flax z cereal everyday would harm me? i know its high in flax but also contains Wheat bran. Seving size is 1/2 cup, but maybe if i halved it maybe i could have it every day?
Im on OWL at the moment. any thoughts?

Feel free to test it - watch for cravings and/or see if it stalls you. That's what owl is all about

i actually quite like it and it fills me up, doesnt trigger any cravings either. Will soon find out if it stalls me though, saying that though a lot of things have stalled me but im not sure what! im losing at a slow rate which is ok with me, as long as im not gaining then im winning!!
