difficult to manage, since I have oatmeal for breakfast.

Everybody's different. I have moderate meals at 6 am, noon, and 6 pm.
Then I'm done eating for the day.

right?

Nutritionally, grains are not equivalent to, say, broccoli. It makes
more sense to divide the plant kingdom into three nutritional/culinary
groups:

Fruit
Vegetable
Grain

Aren't you the guy who says rice is empty calories?
