comment At what time are oats effective?
I eat a bowl of oatmeal as an appetizer before at least two meals a day. It does indeed make the meal satisfy much longer. Usually those meals are lunch and supper.

comment Is using compression clothing during a work out a good or bad idea?
Since they are for comfort not efficiency. And since I have a disability that makes both running and biking nearly impossible; most of my exercise is in the comfort of my own home. I do go for long walks, but I do not think it is worth buying one to wear while walking outside.

comment What are good cardio exercises for a one legged man?
I am 46. My amputation is above knee. My sits ups are about 500/day in 3 or 4 sets. I do 350 reps/day on the rowing like machine. And my walks are 2-3 km. My current weight is 207 with my artificial leg on. I did some checking and our city pool does offer laps swimming during the noon hour. So I think I will buy a season pass. I have not been swimming since I was a kid, but I was quite good and at it then. I had one leg then as well (I have been an amputee for over 40 years). I do Yoga and weight lifting. I did not mention them in my question because I am looking for cardio options.

Looking at the picture it looks like in pistols the other leg is used for balance. I think I would fall
